2015 MLB Draft: Picks 11-18 – Indians take Brady Aiken at No. 17
By Matthew PouliotJun 8, 2015, 8:44 PM EDT
No. 11 pick – Reds – high school catcher Tyler Stephenson
Stephenson was the only catcher expected to have much chance of going in the top half of round one. He was also a legitimate prospect as a pitcher, but everyone was looking at him as a catcher, where his big arm will remain an asset. He offers big-time power potential, but he probably won't turn into a particularly well-rounded hitter.
No. 12 pick – Marlins – high school first baseman Josh Naylor
The first Canadian taken, Naylor might offer the greatest power potential in the draft. He's expected to be limited to first base, and he might not be much of an asset there. He could also be a big strikeout guy. The Marlins obviously have dreams of him protecting Giancarlo Stanton in the lineup someday, but it won't happen anytime soon. He doesn't even turn 18 for another two weeks.
No. 13 pick – Rays – high school outfielder Garrett Whitley
The Rays badly need this pick to work out after missing on so many first-rounders of late. Of course, this is the earliest they've picked since they grabbed Tim Beckham first overall in 2008. Whitley is a strong defensive center fielder with plenty of speed, and his swing should provide him with power in time.
No. 14 pick – Braves – high school left-hander Kolby Allard
The Braves are going with a West Coast guy in the first round for the first time since 1995, when they took, but didn't sign, future Stanford quarterback Chad Hutchinson. Allard entered the year as a potential top-five pick, but a stress reaction in his back suffered in March damaged his stock. He could be a tough sign as a UCLA commit.
No. 15 pick – Brewers – high school outfielder Trent Clark
A left-handed hitter, Clark should hit for average and show at least doubles power. He could have gone even higher if teams were convinced he'd stay in center field, but it's possible he'll end up in left. The Brewers already have Tyrone Taylor and Monte Harrison as center field hopefuls, so it wouldn't be such a disaster if Clark needs to slide over.
No. 16 pick – Yankees – UCLA right-hander James Kaprielian
Kaprielian is the biggest pitcher drafted so far, standing 6-foot-4. He should be one of the quickest movers among college pitchers, though he probably doesn't have the ceiling of a Carson Fulmer. He's just a low-90s guy with his fastball, but he has four pitches and fine command for someone his age.
No. 17 pick – Indians – left-hander Brady Aiken
The first overall pick from the 2014 draft is off the board. Aiken underwent Tommy John surgery in March, so he won't begin pitching in the minors until next summer. He was viewed by most as the top talent in last year's draft, and if his stuff comes all of the way back, he could prove to be a steal for the Indians. Obviously, there's plenty of risk, but it's a risk worth taking, considering that plenty of "safer" picks in this range don't pan out.
No. 18 pick – Giants – Southern Nevada right-hander Phil Bickford
Bickford was the 10th overall pick out of high school in 2013, but he opted not to sign with the Blue Jays. His stuff has been up and down, more due to mechanical issues than any physical problems. He's thrown in the mid-90s and shown a plus slider at times, and if he puts it all together, he could prove to be an excellent starter in time. Some believe he's more likely to wind up in the pen.

Angular roller bearings and ball bearings in an assembly typically require preloading in order to maintain a minimum designed axial force in the assembly. The minimum force is called the bearing preload and is designed to overcome the stack up of tolerances within the assembly and ensure no slop or gaps exist for a smooth and tight rotation.
There are many options available to the designer to compensate for the assembly's tolerances and achieve the desired preload force.
Preload adjusted by a threaded stop nut or bolt.
Benefits: preload is infinitely adjustable and able to be serviced in the field with minimal stocked parts.
Benefits: Simple and inexpensive design, and maintains constant preload between service intervals.
Drawbacks: Requires multiple stocked shim thicknesses to achieve the proper force during assembly.
Preload achieved by a spring and is dependant on the spring "K" and is only adjustable by replacing the spring with a different strength or configuration.
Benefits: Simple design and allows small yield during impact.
Drawbacks: Dissipating preload as spring fatigues, and allows yield during impact which may be detrimental to assembly (such as with a ring and pinion meshing gear set). Difficult to adjust.
Benefits: Simple and inexpensive design, maintains constant preload between service intervals, and allows for easier service in the field with less parts stocking.
Drawbacks: Sometimes it is difficult to peel layers, and discarded layers must be scrapped.
Preload achieved with multiple layers of Shims, but the Shims are held together only by their edges making peeling to the desired thickness relatively simple.
Benefits: Easy to peel layers. Simple and inexpensive design, maintains constant preload between service intervals, and allows for the easiest service in the field with less parts stocking. Unused layers may be used in a different assembly.
Edge bonded shim sets are ideal for bearing preload applications and have key benefits over more conventional and laminated types of shims. The main difference between an edge bonded shim set and a laminated shim pack is the method of attachment between each layer of material.
Laminated shim packs are adhered throughout the entire surface between each layer of material and the layers are pressed together to cure much like how a particle board is manufactured.
The layers of an edge bonded shim set are first pressed together, and then adhered by the edges of the shim's profile. This allows for a much easier separation of the layers in the field.
Overview of Benefits: Easy to peel layers. Simple and inexpensive design, maintains constant preload between service intervals, and allows or the easiest service in the field with less parts stocking. Unused layers may be used in a different assembly.
Edge bonded shim sets have more versatility with size and shape, allowing any shaped design, large or small, to be manufactured.
Edge bonded shim sets provide a more accurate and consistent preloading throughout the service life of the assembly without requiring a precise torque set.
Provides the most cost-effective solution, especially for repairs or service, compared to any angular bearing preload system.
Materials used for edge-bonded shims are less expensive - along with reducing costs with reusable removed layers.
Safety improvements are realized because no knife is required to remove edge-bonded layers.
Edge-bonded shim sets offer safe adjustment in seconds rather than time consuming and difficult to peel surface bonded laminates.
A military ground assault vehicle manufacturer approached SPIROL to provide quick delivery of adjustable shim packs for spacing of armored vehicle door hinges. The spacing is critical for the welding process, providing proper sealing and locking engagement of the door systems.
The customer designed an adjustable shim pack based on surface bonded shim material requiring 94 layers of 0.0002" thick laminates. Because of the size and configuration of the parts, surface bonded materials were problematic in cost, the amount of time needed for dimensional adjustament, as well as a long lead-time required for manufacturing.
SPIROL application engineers worked with the customer to determine the required adjustment and developed three edge-bonded shim set proposals. The Customer evaluated the advantages and selected a proposal offering safe, quick adjustment, a 70% cost reduction, and a short manufacturing lead-time. SPIROL provided the solution without tooling cost using SPIROL's tool-less manufacturing technology.
SPIROL offers free samples and application engineering support.
SPIROL manufactures non-threaded types of bearing preload systems including Disc Springs, Shims, Laminated Shims, and Edge Bonded Shims.

Q: Execute a function in angular after all the api calls are done Below code is my component. In which i am subscribing to some apis from a service. I want to call my test() function after all the apis are successfully returning data.
ngOninit() {

functionToLoadData();
}

functionToLoadData() {
 apicall1();
apicall2();
apicall3();
apicall4();
}

apicall1(){
someapicall1.subscribe();
}
apicall2(){
someapicall2.subscribe();
}
apicall3(){
someapicall3.subscribe();
}
apicall4(){
someapicall4.subscribe();
}

test() {
 console.log('i want to call afunction after all above apis are done loading');
}

}  ```

Here in my code the api calls are done by injecting a service where all the get calls are done and return type is observable.

I want something so that my test function is called after all these apis are successfully finished.

A: You can call the second api in the subscription of the first
functionToLoadData() {
    apicall1();
}

apicall1(){
    someapicall1.subscribe(
        () => {
            apicall2();
        }
    );
}
apicall2(){
    someapicall2.subscribe(
        () => {
            apicall3();
        }
    );
}
apicall3(){
    someapicall3.subscribe();
}

Or you can convert the Observables to Promises and await the response
Angular async/await

A: You can use forkJoin for it. ForkJoin will send response when all observable execution is done. You will receive the response in array.
Example-DEMO - click on forkJoin example and check the console logs.
const observable1$ = this.httpClient.get(`https://restcountries.eu/rest/v2/name/${value1}`);

const observable2$ = this.httpClient.get(`https://restcountries.eu/rest/v2/name/${value2}`)

forkJoin([observable1$, observable2$]).subscribe((response)=>{
      // get [observable1$ response, observable2$ response] in array
})

for you code, it should be something like,
apicall1(){
  return someapicall1; // assuming it will return observable.
}
apicall2(){
  return someapicall2;
}

apicall3(){
   return someapicall3;
}
apicall4(){
   return someapicall4;
}

forkJoin([this.apicall1(), this.apicall2(), this.apicall3(), this.apicall4()]).subscribe((response)=>{
          this.test();
})

test() {
 console.log('i want to call afunction after all above apis are done loading');
}

similarly, you can use mergeMap,
concatMap if you are playing with Observable.
If you are playing with Promise then Promise.all can be used accordingly.

When reporting on cryptocurrency, the mainstream media often focuses on price drops relating to USD. But a human rights activist reminds the general public that Bitcoin is not another commodity or stock on the market, rather, a tool for liberation.
Alex Gladstein, Chief Strategy Officer at the Human Rights Foundation, has published an article titled "Why Bitcoin Matters for Freedom" in Time Magazine. In it he explains how cryptocurrency can help people retake control of their lives from oppressive regimes.
The article focuses on the current situation in Venezuela as the prime example of its thesis. It details how Venezuelans are using Bitcoin to evade runaway hyperinflation and harsh capital controls. It also shows how after greatly devaluing citizens' savings, the Maduro regime is using the banking system to confiscate much of the money sent from abroad by people that want to help their families back home.
Beyond Venezuela, the article notes how Bitcoin can help citizens suffering from inflation in Zimbabwe, those who want to avoid mass surveillance in China, NGOs that have their bank accounts frozen in Russia, and refugees without access to basic banking services. It also explains that cash fiat is used without government permission, but can be made virtually useless by hyperinflation and that many countries are moving to become cashless societies – thus strengthening the need for cryptocurrency.
When will we see widespread Bitcoin adoption by people living under authoritarian regimes? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.

Maybe the most photogenic and cute looking wild animals anywhere, raccoons are devious and potentially dangerous, and should be addressed with caution. Though it can be tempting to try and resolve an animal problem on your own, you should always call a professional to ensure your safety, and to guarantee that the problem is handled completely.
Disease Transmittal – Raccoons are most well known for being carriers of rabies, but that is not the only danger they pose. In addition to rabies, raccoons can carry roundworm and leptospirosis, which is then transmitted through their waste. If you have raccoons on your property, be sure to keep pets and children away from where they are.
Property Damage – Raccoons are primarily looking for food sources when they come onto your property, so gardens, trees, and garbage cans are all prime targets for being vandalized. Keep trashcans tightly sealed and stored inside if possible, and keep your garden free of any fallen produce to help discourage them.
Attacks – Though they mostly keep to themselves, raccoons can become aggressive if they feel threatened, are cornered, or if they have babies nearby. If somebody comes into contact with a raccoon, they should seek medical attention to ensure there are no infections.
If you've witnessed raccoon activity on your property, call the experts at Critter Control® of Reno at 775.322.5558. We offer fast, comprehensive estimates, and we can schedule your initial consultation today! With decades of experience, there is no better option for raccoon removal.

Could cannabis help crack cocaine addicts kick the habit?
By Andy Coghlan
Time to case the joint?
Teryoshi/plainpicture
COMPONENTS of cannabis might help those addicted to crack cocaine to quit. Such people may find it easier to curb their usage or give up entirely when they take some form of cannabis, suggests a small study that builds on similar results from research in rodents.
"This is a promising development that will provide more alternatives to those in need," says Ric Curtis at the City University of New York, who wasn't involved in the work.
Some of the first hints that cannabis might help curb crack cravings were anecdotal, says Curtis, who studied crack dealers in the 1980s. "They would wean themselves off crack by smoking it with marijuana."
To find out if this approach might work, Michael-John Milloy at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver assessed the findings from three long-term studies of drug users in the city. Across the studies, 3000 people with a history of drug use completed questionnaires detailing their habits, including whether they had started taking cannabis with the intention of reducing their crack cravings.
Milloy and his colleagues identified 122 crack users who started taking cannabis for this purpose. Over an average of 30 months, these individuals were 89 per cent more likely to have reduced their crack use when they were using cannabis, compared with when they were not using it.
"People were 89 per cent more likely to reduce their crack use when they were taking cannabis"
It also appeared to help some of them quit crack altogether or stay off it if they had already done so. "Before intentional cannabis use, 11 per cent were not using crack at all," says Milloy. "After intentional use, that increased to 28 per cent." His team presented the results at the Harm Reduction International Conference in Montreal last month.
The study wasn't a clinical trial, so the team can't be certain that the decline in crack use wasn't down to willpower or some other factor. Another flaw in the research is that the team didn't account for the form or amount of cannabis used.
Still, the results are intriguing and deserve further investigation, says Nora Volkow, director of the US National Institute on Drug Abuse in Maryland.
Milloy is currently planning a randomised and controlled trial, in which half the participants will receive a placebo. The other half will be given measured doses of medical-grade cannabis or specific components of cannabis that don't deliver a high.
It will be vital to learn which components might help most in treating drug addictions. Cannabis comes in various forms, which might explain why other studies have found that people who take cannabis find it harder to quit cocaine.
Animal studies suggest that a component called cannabidiol (CBD) might be the best bet. This compound is thought to interfere with reward pathways in the brain, potentially limiting the rewarding feeling of taking some addictive drugs, says Volkow. "From doing lots of studies in animals, CBD has been shown to be beneficial in reducing drug intake," she says.

For individuals who are first time aspirants, it'll be needed to supply a concise intro about what is this examination about. The creating part within the overall IELTS is again based on real-life scenarios. There'll always become a sort of graphic explanation, which means you need to plan it as it is going to crop up on the examination. If you're new to IELTS, then you might be heading to first wish to know which is explained within the summary below. The 2nd tasks are fairly similar in that them both are discursive documents. You have the ability to review your paper following the entire creating procedure is completed or you could evaluate your writing as you create. Or if you're only writing a report and searching for tricks.
In case you have cool sounds, you likely have great colour.
Finish this total writing task to be totally ready for the actual evaluation. There are specific rules and regulations for every single issue in grammar of the terminology. Unless you know Language, then you'd be in need of the translator to execute the occupation. The very first phase of instruction this terminology would be fairly fascinating. Generally, the most renowned language is British. When you're feeling which you're comfortable with all the language, it is possible to type sentences. Generally, the phrases are broken up in to three distinct types. A phrase is actually a number of words, creating an entire sense.
We merely make use of the seat (hypothesize it) thus we could proceed with your concept.
The writing paper is considerably more challenging. On the opposite hand, when you have very little period, as well as the TestDaF will undoubtedly be upon you in virtually no time whatsoever, the most practical way to prepare for it afterward is to memorise all the essential phrases and sayings you will want to your own writing and speaking sections of the papers. Ultimately, the speaking area will likely be used on a later date from the balance of the check in addition to in the presence of the skilled interviewer. The wonderful thing about multiple choice is the fact that it's simple to pick out erroneous answers, while the outstanding point about copying down is the reply is sitting there inside the writing. The foe wont ask if you're a guy or even a woman. The hypothesis behind PE is really to create sure that one soldier may have the ability to save life of some other soldier, regardless of how heavy he's. It really is my hope that this essay was helpful in earning your pick. The composition is generally a discussion of the topic of common interest.
All you have to is really a garlic, olive oil, onion and a few other materials that are easy.
In the next part, you're going to be offered a card using a issue and a couple specific questions to address. The introduction is simply an general outline of junk you will discuss within the human body or your essay. Simply be sure to provide examples. The correct register, or level of custom, should to be used for each writing job. Don't neglect to use appropriate paragraphing also as you are going to receive higher marks for this. In the overall training component, you would need to create a letter, nevertheless in the educational element, you should have to explain some type of graph or plan. You'll be anticipated to complete replies as you listen.
The STEM in USA job of the overall training element is actually to publish a correspondence. The queries in every single section become increasingly more difficult as the evaluation progresses. The reply is dependent on what types of evaluations you excel at, alongside in which you think to employ.

The first Sunday of each month here at Colona Community Church, we celebrate Communion.
Every time I am blessed to participate in the act of Communion, I am reminded of a beautiful story that was shared at a retreat I was on a number of years ago. The young man who was speaking was reflecting on Jesus' time on the cross. He told us to think on the idea that after Jesus had already endured so much, and even though He knew what was still to come before His resurrection, He looked out over the crowd beneath the cross. But He didn't simply see the soldiers casting lots for His clothing or the women weeping over His crucifixion or the people mocking Him—He saw all of us, every man, woman, and child from creation to the end of days. And looking across that unfathomable sea of people, He locked eyes with you (yes, you) and said, "Even if you were the only one, I'd still do this." While His body was broken and His blood was spilling, He looked on you with love and knew that He'd do whatever it took, face all of God's wrath, be separated from His Father, just for you, just to save YOU.
He remembered you and me when He was on the cross, and that is why we should be honored and humbled to celebrate Communion in remembrance of Him and all He did (and still does) for us.

Air and Space Museum closes after guards clash with protesters
Correction: The original version of this story gave an incorrect surname for the Smithsonian's spokeswoman. It has been updated.
By Emma Brown and Del Quentin Wilber
The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum on the Mall was abruptly closed Saturday afternoon after a "large group of protesters" tried to push past security guards and enter the museum, a spokeswoman said.

At least one demonstrator was pepper-sprayed by a museum guard in the confrontation, said Smithsonian spokeswoman Linda St. Thomas. Several witnesses said that more than a dozen people were affected by the spray.
The museum was closed at about 3:15 p.m., St. Thomas said.
Some of the protesters were affiliated with the Occupy DC demonstration that had sprung up at McPherson Square last week as an offshoot of the larger Occupy Wall Street movement in New York City, said Cody Steele, 21, an American University senior who participated in the march to the museum.
Steele said the march was planned, however, by a different but like-minded group of protesters — known as the October 2011 group — who have been camped out in Freedom Plaza since Oct. 6.
"It's a shifting movement," said Steele, who has spent time with both protest groups this past week. "They are separate, but it's a common set of goals."
The two groups' grievances span a range of issues, including corporate power, environmental destruction and American militarism. On Saturday, they were demonstrating at the museum against the U.S. military's use of drones in overseas wars, witnesses said.
An exhibit of military unmanned aerial vehicles is currently on view at the museum.
As many as 200 people attempted to enter the museum through doors facing the National Mall, said St. Thomas, while others gathered at the museum's Independence Avenue entrance. The demonstrators carried large signs and other items not allowed inside the museum, she said.
When a security guard told them they could not enter, demonstrators pushed the guard outside and up against a wall, St. Thomas said. Another guard approached and pepper-sprayed one protester before D.C. police and U.S. Park Police were called, she said, and one person was arrested.
No one was seriously hurt by the pepper spray, said Pete Piringer, a spokesman for D.C. Fire and EMS. Medics treated several people at the scene, Piringer said, but everyone affected by the pepper spray refused to be taken to hospitals for further evaluation.
The museum is to reopen Sunday at 10 a.m., St. Thomas said.

Acting CBP Commissioner Boasts About The New Border Wall System [New Photos]
Star Political News November 29, 2019
The acting Customs and Border Protection Commissioner is addressing the new border wall system. In a Wednesday tweet, Mark Morgan revealed a new photo of a portion of the barrier in San Diego, California.
Morgan said the updated wall has been fitted with 18-foot steel bollards, integrated lighting sensor technology, and access roads. He compared the updated portion of the wall to a section of outdated infrastructure, which he said was easy to penetrate. He said the new barrier will not be easy to cut through.
The commissioner said these kinds of amenities could largely benefit CBP agents in preventing illegal immigration and curtailing the flow of drugs into the country.
The image on the left is outdated infrastructure that is easy to penetrate like @CBPSanDiego USBP Agents responded to last week. The new border wall system on the right —18-foot steel bollards— is not. This is new wall, providing new, durable capability for our Agents. pic.twitter.com/vXGjiFbJll
— Acting Commissioner Mark Morgan (@CBPMarkMorgan) November 27, 2019
"It's a national security crisis, we have bad people and bad things coming into this country," he said. "Border Patrol apprehended over 1,200 gang members last year from 25 different gangs (and) seized 750,000 pounds of narcotics."
Morgan went on to say the new system will slow traffic down enough for Border Patrol agents to intervene every time.
The commissioner's remarks came days after President Trump chose senior White House adviser Jared Kushner to oversee the construction of the wall. Officials said Kushner plans to makeover 800 filings to acquire enough land for another 450 miles of fencing, all before the 2020 elections.
It's a wonder that Democrats haven't staked out a negotiating position demanding the destruction of already-existing barriers along the US-Mexico border.
Their opposition to President Trump's border wall — or, more properly, his so-called wall — is now so total as to be nearly indistinguishable from opposition to any serious infrastructure at the border at all. Listening to the 2020 candidates, one would hear that they hate the border itself.
Triggered as always by Trump, and growing more dovish on immigration almost by the hour, Democrats are treating the notion of a wall as practically a human-rights abuse.
President Barack Obama routinely droned people without generating as much high dudgeon as Trump does asking for $5 billion to better fortify our southern border.
Sen. Chuck Schumer calls the wall "medieval." It's true that the core idea — a physical barrier to impede the movement of people — isn't a new technology. The basic concept proved out so long ago that there hasn't been any need to revisit it.
The wall is so "medieval" that the built sections have slowed down illegal border crossings. In fact, one may say "walls DO work!"

Horn (hiszp. Cabo de Hornos) − skalisty przylądek położony na wyspie Hornos, w archipelagu Ziemi Ognistej (Chile). Stanowi on najdalej na południe wysunięty punkt Ameryki Południowej (55°59' S, 67°16' W), natomiast najdalej wysuniętym na południe przylądkiem części kontynentalnej Ameryki Południowej jest przylądek Froward. Przylądek Horn wyznacza północną granicę Cieśniny Drake'a, a południk przechodzący przez przylądek Horn jest uznawany za granicę między Oceanem Spokojnym a Atlantykiem (czasami za południowy punkt tej granicy jest uznawana Snow Island). Przylądek Horn został tak nazwany przez holenderskiego żeglarza Willema Schoutena, który opłynął go jako pierwszy 29 stycznia 1616. Nadał mu nazwę Kaap Hoorn na cześć miasta Hoorn, z którego pochodził.

W 1945 roku został utworzony Park Narodowy Przylądka Horn.

Żegluga wokół Hornu
Opłynięcie Przylądka Horn jest trudnym zadaniem, ze względu na panujące tu zwykle trudne warunki pogodowe. Tylko w 1905 r. zatonęły tu 43 żaglowce, a z 15 z nich nikt się nie uratował. Obecnie przepływającym statkom zadanie ułatwia utrzymywana przez Chile latarnia morska.

Otwarcie Kanału Panamskiego w 1914 roku spowodowało, że droga morska przez przylądek Horn straciła na znaczeniu. Mimo to, do tej pory jest uznawana za istotne osiągnięcie w żeglarstwie i stosunkowo mała grupa żeglarzy kontynuuje opływanie przylądka Horn, w szczególności w regatach dookoła świata. Większość z nich przepływa wokół wysp na północ od przylądka Horn, a część czeka na dobrą pogodę przy wyspie, a czasami opływa ją. Opłynięcie Przylądka Horn jachtem uważa się za żeglarski odpowiednik wspinaczki na Mount Everest. Pierwszym, który tego dokonał samotnie, był pochodzący z Kanady Amerykanin Joshua Slocum w trakcie pierwszego samotnego rejsu dookoła świata w 1895 r. na 11-metrowym jolu Spray, ale ponieważ zmuszony przez pogodę częściowo nawigował w kanałach między wyspami Przylądka Horn, dlatego za pierwszego, który rzeczywiście opłynął Horn "od zewnętrznej strony" na małej łodzi (13-metrowym jachcie Saoirse), uznawany jest Irlandczyk Edward Conor O'Brien, który tego dokonał w trakcie rejsu dokoła świata w latach 1923-25 - jednak nie samotnie, lecz z trzema członkami załogi. Jako pierwszy w ramach samotnego rejsu dookoła świata w pełni wzdłuż "ryczących czterdziestek" opłynął go w 1943 r. Argentyńczyk Vito Dumas na 10-metrowym keczu Lehg II.

Ze względu na wiejące tu nieustannie zachodnie wiatry (zob. "wyjące pięćdziesiątki"), zachodzi zasadnicza różnica między opływaniem go od zachodu i od wschodu. Pierwszym, który samotnie opłynął go "pod wiatr" był Norweg Al Jansen na jachcie Mary Jane w 1934 r.
Najmłodszą osobą, która go opłynęła samotnie, była 16-letnia Amerykanka Abby Sunderland w 2010 r., na 12-metrowym jachcie Wild Eyes, w ramach zakończonej niepowodzeniem na Oceanie Indyjskim próby dokonania najmłodszego samotnego opłynięcia świata. Pierwszą Polką, która opłynęła przylądek, była Iwona Maria Pieńkawa.

Kilka regat żeglarskich, m.in. Volvo Ocean Race, VELUX 5 Oceans Race oraz Vendée Globe wymaga opłynięcia przylądka Horn. Istnieją też trasy rekordów w prędkości opłynięcia świata, gdzie wymagane jest opłynięcie przylądka Horn.

Klimat i pogoda

W grupie wysp należących do przylądka Horn nie ma stacji meteorologicznej. Istnieje stacja meteorologiczna w Ushuaia, 146 kilometrów na północ oraz na wyspie Isla Gonzalo w grupie wysp Diego Ramirez na 100 kilometrów od Przylądka Horn w Cieśninie Drake'a.

Silne wiatry w Cieśninie Drake'a i koło Przylądka Horn są związane z różnicą
temperatury pomiędzy Antarktydą i cieplejszym powietrzem w średnich szerokościach południowych. Ten gradient temperatury tworzy Antarktyczny Front Polarny i silne wiatry wiejące równoleżnikowo z zachodu na wschód koło równoleżnika 60S. Dodatkowym elementem jest efekt przyśpieszania wiatrów wchodzących do Cieśniny Drake'a z zachodu na wschód poprzez górzyste południowe Andy oraz przez górzysty Półwysep Antarktyczny.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate intravitreal methotrexate infusion (IMI) during pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for retinal detachment in patients with high risk for the development of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR).
Methods: Patients presenting with severe recurrent PVR with tractional retinal detachment and/or a history of severe ocular inflammation were treated with IMI. Clinical outcomes were determined from a retrospective medical chart review.
Results: Twenty-nine eyes presenting with either tractional retinal detachment and recurrent PVR (n=22) or a history of severe inflammation associated with high PVR risk (n=7) received IMI during PPV. Best-corrected visual acuity at 6 months was ≥20/200 in 19 of 29 eyes (66%) and remained stable or improved compared with initial presentation in 24 of 29 eyes (83%). At the last follow-up examination, the retinas of 26 of 29 eyes (90%) remained attached after IMI while three eyes required another reattachment procedure. Three additional eyes (10%) developed recurrent limited PVR without recurrent RD and were observed. No complications attributable to IMI occurred during a mean follow-up of 27 months.
Conclusion: Eyes at high risk for PVR development due to a history of prior PVR or intraocular inflammation had a low incidence of PVR following IMI at the time of PPV for RD repair. No significant safety issues from IMI were observed in this series.

Pride Cymru (previously Cardiff Mardi Gras) is an LGBT pride festival held annually in Cardiff, Wales on the August bank holiday weekend.

Pride Cymru's Big Weekend is Wales's biggest celebration of equality and diversity.  Over 3 days, Pride Cymru hosts over 50,000 people in the Welsh capital to raise awareness of equality and diversity and supporting the LGBT+ community. As part of the festival, there are various cabaret performances, funfair rides, live music, bars and food stalls, and a family area.

Etymology
Despite the Welsh language having the word for 'Pride' (Balchder), the English term is used instead to promote the event.

History
The first Cardiff Mardi Gras took place in Bute Park, Cardiff, in September 1999 as a response to an increase in hate crime in South Wales. Over 5,000 people attended this inaugural event. Cardiff Mardi Gras became a registered charity in 2010. Since 2012 the event has included a pride parade through Cardiff city centre. In 2014, Cardiff Mardi Gras was renamed Pride Cymru, and has been operating under this name ever since. The Charity has 3 Patrons including Steps singer Ian 'H' Watkins, Actress Lu Corfield and Established Drag Performer Rob Keetch 'Dr Bev'. Previous Patrons include Russell T Davies, Charlotte Church and Nigel Owens.

Ever since its first event, the festival has continued to grow. It now attracts up to 50,000 people over the three days of the Pride Cymru Big Weekend Festival and is considered to be one of the fastest-growing LGBTI events in the UK.

Pride Cymru was relocated from Bute Park to City Hall Lawns in 2017, due to a booking clash with the Champions League final that year. However, the Big Weekend has continued to be held at the City Hall Lawns ever since. The event is currently due to continue until at least 2022.

Controversy: Cardiff Council
In 2016, there was a rumour started that Cardiff Council had dropped support for the event.
  In an official statement, the Pride Cymru chair said she was told by the council that they'd "made a choice not to allow events during the summer of 2017". There was strong local opposition to the decision and the issue prompted a personal appeal from Sir Ian McKellen in which he compared the negative attitude toward the LGBT community with that seen in India and China on his travels.

Under intense pressure, Cardiff Council reversed its decision and awarded Pride Cymru a slot later in August to move it away from other major events taking place. The organisers would instead take over the running of the Council's Big Weekend open-air music festival.

How does a farmer become a fashion retailer and designer? The trajectory to creating your own fashion label is usually straightforward. But for Liz Robinson, her pathway has been completely unconventional.
Back in 2003 Liz and her partner Keith purchased a few alpacas as pets. They quickly became obsessed with these captivating animals, and since then their herd has grown from three to over 100 alpacas. To promote the luxurious fleece being shorn from their animals, they started importing alpaca jumpers and ponchos from South America and sold them in a small shop on their farm, which they named Alpaca Passion. Nowadays Alpaca Passion is the premier alpaca fashion boutique in Australia and Liz and Keith have been successfully showcasing the alpaca fleece to customers in Daylesford for over 10 years. Liz and Keith's daughter Cassie has always been involved with both the farming and fashion businesses and has inherited her parents' passion for everything Alpaca. After working in the fashion and publishing industries for 10 years, Cassie decided to join the family business full time in February 2016.

The Defense Department began collecting data with a specific view on the decline of physical fitness among service members as early as 2007, but the component services have had relative degrees of success in developing broadly applicable solutions. Leaders have adopted existing programs from the commercial fitness industry such as P90X, Insanity Workout, and Gym Jones to combat the trend at their level. The most popular by far is CrossFit. But while individual commanders in different services have brought it into their gyms, several military health and wellness officials remain skeptical or even critical of CrossFit. Citing high injury rates among participants in the aforementioned regimens, they caution that widespread adaptation of CrossFit would do more to harm than help combat readiness. Still, CrossFit's roots in the SEAL community give it broad appeal among military members. A new research study set to begin next year may yield evidence that the DoD should move forward with full-scale adoption of such a program.
The study will be funded by the National Institute for Health rather than the DoD. The NIH awarded the $2.52 million grant to Dr. Katie Heinrich and Dr. Walker Poston based on their proposal to study if a CrossFit-inspired exercise program can reduce obesity in a test group of soldiers based in Fort Leavenworth. Heinrich is the assistant professor of kinesiology at Kansas State University, where her husband is also the head CrossFit coach. Her previous research has focused on the influence of exercise on children and older adults. Poston is a former Air Force officer and Deputy Director and Senior Principal Investigator for the Institute of Biobehavioral Health Research at the National Development and Research Institutes. Based on their experience, they believe CrossFit will be beneficial to the military by facilitating weight loss while reducing injury rates compared to current physical training regimens.
"Our study is specifically looking at body fat percentage, but we'll also observe fitness outcomes regarding speed, strength and agility," says Heinrich. "Obesity is actually a lot of different chronic conditions. There's a good debate about whether a person with body fat can still be fit." Poston, who has studied obesity for more than a decade, agrees. "In 1995 we had mapped about five or six genes for obesity. By 2000, we had identified 500-plus genes for weight regulation. It's a fundamentally complex problem." Still, both scientists says that being overweight correlates with musculoskeletal injuries during physical activity as much as smoking or high-mileage running. A 2013 report in The U.S. Army Medical Department Journal stated that 56-percent of non-battle injuries requiring medical evacuation from recent theaters of operation were a direct result of physical training. Such figures indicate a problem which Poston believes is more about methodology than muscle.
"All military branches focus too narrowly on what it means to be fit. They emphasize aerobic capacity and upper body and core muscle endurance. Strength and flexibility get left out." CrossFit is known for the extraordinary variety of its workouts, constantly working (and resting) different muscle groups while demanding adaptation in strength, agility and range of motion.
The Marine Corps concluded these principles would be highly beneficial to its personnel after a 2008 study comparing two battalions using either a "usual" or "trial" conditioning program. Results demonstrated lower injury rates and greater improvement in multiple areas of physical performance under the trial program. Four years later, the Corps enthusiastically introduced the High Intensity Tactical Training (HITT) regimen to give Marines a program like CrossFit that "they could call their own." Gyms at several installations now offer HITT classes, and an official website provides everything from video demonstrations of the individual exercise movements to complete workouts for each day of the week. While the Navy, Army and Air Force have all published a slew of directives to revise or emphasize physical training and testing standards, they have not taken such sweeping or drastic measures as the Marines.
The Army has perhaps given high intensity workouts the coolest reception, calling them "extreme conditioning programs" (ECPs) in a 2011 paper written in conjunction with the American College of Sports Medicine. The primary concern of that report was that "there is an apparent disproportionate musculoskeletal injury risk… particularly for novice participants, resulting in lost duty time, medical treatment, and extensive rehabilitation…." While the report did acknowledge beneficial aspects of ECPs, it concluded that "these programs have limitations and should be considered carefully. Moreover, certain distinctive characteristics of ECPs appear to violate recognized accepted standards for safely and appropriately developing muscular fitness…." However, a 2013 study comparing the army's own Advanced Tactical Athlete Conditioning (ATAC) program, the Ranger Athlete Warrior (RAW) regimen, and CrossFit within a Brigade Combat Team found that all approaches caused an equivalent increase in injuries during physical training compared to "standard" physical training. The report said that 62-percent of male participants in the study were considered either overweight or obese at the beginning of the study and noted that physical fitness test scores were correlated to injury rates. Unlike the USMC study, it did not record any changes physical performance at the end of the program. Dr. Poston disputes the claims about CrossFit yielding higher injury rates. "Studies conducted on athletes in different sports have found that there are about 10 injuries for every 1,000 hours of run training. There are 5.4 injuries per 1,000 hours of triathlon training, but that number spikes to 17.4 injuries per 1,000 hours of triathlon competition. There are between 6.2-7.9 injuries per 1,000 hours of USMC Officer Candidate School training, and 3.9 per 1,000 hours of just regular physical training. But in CrossFit there are only between 2.4-3.1 injuries per 1,000 hours." CrossFit's headquarters published its own response to the Army's claims.
Colonel Jeffrey Leggit, Associate Professor of Family and Primary Care Sports Medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USHUS), believes that the debate should be discussed in terms of fundamentals rather than brand-names. In his view, the Army doesn't need to adopt CrossFit or similar programs because the 2012 revision to the Army Physical Readiness Training Manual has already incorporated those principles which will be most beneficial to soldiers. "You always need to train with a goal in mind. A triathlete and an osteoarthritis patient are going to have different goals. You can get any program to fail by doing too much, too fast without enough recovery. The problem with ECPs isn't totally their principles. CrossFit does incorporate some very good principles. The problem is adjusting the program to the individual person and providing adequate supervision in executing it." While the Marines have taken on the supervision problem in the Semper Fit gyms, Leggit says the Army has chosen to rely on its Master Fitness Trainer-qualified personnel distributed throughout the force. The Master Fitness Trainer Course was revamped at the beginning of 2013 with the goal of distributing approximately 4,500 certified trainers throughout the Army by the end of this year. It's still too early to know what the long-term effects of either program will be. The most recent available data on overweight and obesity in the military was taken in 2011. At that time, the Army had the highest obesity rate of all the services (16.1-percent) and the Marines had the lowest (5-percent). Leggit says that he is open to considering the results of Heinrich and Poston's study if it finds an improvement in body composition associated with the program, but he cautions not to buy into marketing messages. "If the study succeeds, does it succeed because of CrossFit, or because it uses good principles? Most diets would help a person lose weight if they would follow them. The problem is actually doing what the program tells you to do."
That so many different high intensity programs like CrossFit exist on the commercial market is probably the best demonstration of Leggit's argument. They all incorporate the same general principles. CrossFit itself cited the Marines' development of HITT as a vindication of its brand, which is also seemingly an admission that it's the philosophy that matters more than the name. Still, there's no denying CrossFit's popularity, and that a large number of its participants get results. The 3rd Infantry Division has embraced the program, funding training for 600 soldiers to become certified CrossFit coaches in 2012. Then commanding general Robert Abrams told The Frontline that "CrossFit will change you." Statements like that signify a momentum that may prevent the army's own program from gaining traction. Poston says that the regimen's popularity was the exact reason he and Heinrich chose it for the test. Between that and the army's conspicuous ranking in the body weight standings, and depending on how soon they can demonstrate the efficacy of its current physical regimen, Heinrich and Poston's findings may wind up receiving more consideration than expected.

A city man who allegedly forced his way into his ex-girlfriend�s bedroom Thursday night and, while holding a knife to her neck, threatened to kill her, was ordered held on $10,000 cash bail at his arraignment yesterday.
Joao Ribeiro, 36, of 8 Ruthven Ave. was arraigned yesterday morning in Central District Court on charges of home invasion, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (knife), armed assault with intent to murder, malicious destruction of property and an open container of alcohol violation.
Judge David Ricciardone issued a restraining order requested by Ms. Santos requiring Mr. Ribeiro to stay at least 100 yards away from her. A Portuguese-speaking interpreter assisted Mr. Ribeiro and Ms. Santos during the court hearing.
Ms. O�Brien said she was informed that federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities had issued a detainer for the Brazilian-born Mr. Ribeiro. Judge Ricciardone set the $10,000 cash bail requested by Ms. O�Brien and continued Mr. Ribeiro�s case to Dec. 23.

Freedom to photograph public spaces...
Here in New York City train buffs have been having a bit of trouble with the police and transit employees when taking photos on the subway system. According to the MTA's own website, taking photos or videos by the general public is LEGAL -- but try telling that to the police. Down in Washington, DC, they have been having a similar problem when trying to take photos or videos inside of Union Station. Amtrak says it is legal, but as this FOX News video shows, not everybody knows that. Priceless!
You can't do that here!

Failing to check each maintenance item could lead to poor engine performance and increase exhaust emissions.
(a) Check that the coolant level is between the "FULL" and "LOW" lines on the see-through reservoir.
(a) Check that the front of the radiator is clean and not blocked by leaves, dirt and bugs.
(a) Check that the electrolyte level of all the battery cells is between the upper and lower lines on the case.
If the electrolyte level is difficult to see, lightly shake the vehicle.
(a) Check that the brake fluid level is near the upper level line on the see-through reservoirs.
(a) Check the drive belt for fraying, cracks, wear or oil .
(a) Check that the engine oil level is between "F" and "L" on the dipstick with the engine turned off.
(a) Visually inspect for severe corrosion, cracks, holes or loose supports.
If any change in the sound of the exhaust or smell of the exhaust fumes is noticed, inspect and repair the exhaust system.

Johnny Rodgers
August 26, 2016 by Tim Kaldahl
Johnny Rodgers turned 65 this year. He looks great. The 1972 Heisman Trophy winner and Husker football legend is also busy. He likes it that way.
"Well, I think that retiring, to me, is being in the position to do the things you want to do. I don't think that retiring is getting somewhere and doing nothing," Rodgers says. He then adds with a chuckle: "The law of use says, 'If you don't use it, you lose it.' And I've found that a lot of people, as soon as they retire and start doing nothing, they die."
Rodgers is far from retired…and he's aiming to live to age 100. He works as vice president of new business development for the U.S. and Canada at Rural Media Group Inc., which operates both RFD-TV (the huge rural-focused television network) and Rural Radio on SiriusXM. He also recently published a book and audio book, titled, Ten Minutes of Insanity. The self-help book and audiobook provide insights into moments when a person can "mess themselves up" or "set themselves up." Rodgers speaks from youthful personal experience coupled with an older man's perspective.
Referring back to his college years, a "mess yourself up" situation is "like the gas station fiasco that I was involved with," he says. The opposite, positive kind of moment is "like the punt return against Oklahoma. You've got to be pretty insane to stand back there and wait for them to come." He adds that each scenario "presents dramatic results, just in a different way."
Rodgers has a website in the works (which should be live this fall) aimed at providing help and perspective to business leaders, entrepreneurs, and athletes. "What I really want to do is to help athletes—professional athletes of football, basketball, baseball, all of them—transition from sports to public speaking," he says. "And to be able to set up mechanisms for them to be able to tell their stories."
Denny Drake, who has worked with Rodgers for more than 20 years on a variety of charitable and business projects, says Rodgers has always been open to trying new ideas, and to receiving critiques and wisdom from others. Drake is the president and CEO of the marketing company Performance Solutions Worldwide. He is also connected to the Jet Award (named after Rodgers), which honors the top return specialist in college football, and the Johnny Rodgers Youth Foundation. Rodgers serves as the youth foundation's president; Drake is its CEO.
"Johnny is a really good idea guy. He's a good visionary of things," Drake says. The two men are also working together on Authentic Collegiate Jeans, a venture to provide jeans with school and university logos that should launch this fall.
With all that is going on in his life, Rodgers says he remains thoughtful about maintaining himself, too. When he was young man, it was about being a high-caliber athlete. Now, it is about being a quality person. He's a fan of fish and organic chicken, but might only eat one traditional meal a day. For additional nutrition, he consumes kale and greens, frozen cherries and blueberries, and other healthy foods in liquid form in the morning, and fruit or protein bars in the afternoon, prior to dinner. He also tries to drink at least a half a gallon of lemon water every day.
Rodgers plays tennis, golf, and racquetball weekly, and plays at a higher level now after having knee replacement surgery this past year. Rodgers says (with a smile) that 60 is the new 40.
"At 60, you're smarter than you've ever been," he says. "And at 20, you're about as dumb as you've ever been."
Johnny Rodgers has long been known for his unique take on many subjects. Below are some of his quips to reporter Tim Kaldahl.
On Mike Riley, the University of Nebraska's head football coach:
"Mike is probably a mix between Osborne and Devaney, as I see it."
On the future of Nebraska football:
"I think our future is so bright that we've got to wear shades."
On current concerns about the safety of football:
"I can't think, overall, that it's any more dangerous than it always has been, and I think that that risk factor is what people liked all the time. The possibility that, you know, you could get jacked." (Rodgers chuckles.)
On good habits for life:
"And you don't want a habit that's taking you down. You want to create the type of habits that build you up, so you have to make a change."
On staying mentally focused and goal setting:
"Thoughts are not just things. Thoughts are the cause of things. So if you can hold a thought long enough, you can have it."
