  • Game Day Recipes Because There’S More to Life Than Beer and Pretzels
    WHOLE LIFE CHALLENGE APPROVED GAME DAY RECIPES BECAUSE THERE’S MORE TO LIFE THAN BEER AND PRETZELS. THE FIRST SUNDAY OF FEBRUARY. DOES THIS MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU? If you’re a football fan, it sure does! The beginning of February is all about the Super Bowl. And whether your favorite team is playing or not, we know a lot of you will still be watching with friends and family. But while celebrating the big game is a fun way to spend your weekend, it can feel overwhelming when you’re also trying to establish or maintain a healthy lifestyle. Between the drinks, the snacks, the rich dips, the salty chips, and the sweet desserts, avoiding temptation can feel like a huge blow to your confidence...sort of like a fif- teen-yard penalty, or a pick six, or a safety, or a missed field goal... ...well, you get the idea. This year, let’s keep the penalties out of your game-day party. To avoid completely derailing your healthy lifestyle, try adding these WLC Approved Game Day Recipes to your pre-game, half-time, or post-game celebrations. These recipes have been designed to serve as healthier spins on game-day classics — without sacrificing taste or satisfaction. It’s wise, of course, to remember that consuming adult beverages and party foods isn’t intended to be a regular habit—yes, even with the “healthier” versions. Ideally, eating and drinking for your health requires more conscious intention and choice and less vegging out and “eating it because it’s there.” But on special days like the Super Bowl, you don’t have to feel guilty for wanting to have a bit of fun and indulgence, especially if you make an effort to surround your- self with better food options.

  • The Office of the Commissioner of Baseball Robert D. Manfred Jr
    The Office of the Commissioner of Baseball Robert D. Manfred Jr., Commissioner 245 Park Avenue 31st Floor New York, NY 10167 March 15, 2019 An Open Letter to Robert Manfred, Commissioner of Major League Baseball Dear Commissioner Manfred, We write to you as leaders of a nationwide movement to end violence against women, to ask that you take firm and appropriate action in disciplining San Francisco Giants CEO and President Larry Baer, for his conduct during a public, physical alterca- tion with his wife, Pam Baer. While Mr. Baer has expressed regret for his behavior, we believe this incident represents more than an embarrassing private quarrel that spilled into public view. It is a test of how seriously Major League Baseball views its responsibility to hold its leaders, as it does with its players, to the highest standards of personal conduct. In 2015, MLB became one of the first major professional sports leagues to adopt a policy on domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse. At the time, you ex- pressed your pride in the baseball community for holding itself to a standard “that re- flects the gravity and the sensitivities of those significant societal issues.” You noted, “we believe that these efforts will foster not only an approach of education and pre- vention but also a united stance against these matters throughout our sport and our communities.” You were right. The incident in question is precedent-setting, and not, as some have asserted, a squabble over a cell phone in which it appears that no laws were broken. Behavior does not have to be criminal in order for it to be wrong and contrary to the standards set by MLB.

  • Project Description A. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION
    Chapter 1: Project Description A. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION The City of New York Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), in coordination with USTA National Tennis Center, Incorporated (USTA)1, is seeking a number of discretionary actions in connection with proposed improvements and an expansion to the facilities at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center (NTC), located in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens (see Figure 1-1). These improvements collectively are known as the NTC Strategic Vision (the proposed project). The NTC is located on a portion of Queens Block 2018, Lot 1, on park land leased by DPR to USTA. The leased site is bounded to the north by the railway tracks of the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR)’s Port Washington line; United Nations Avenue North to the south; the Passerelle Building (connects LIRR’s Mets-Willets Point station to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA)’s 7 train station, and Citi Field, the New York Mets baseball stadium) and Path of the Americas to the east2; and Grand Central Parkway to the west.3 The 42-acre NTC is one of the world’s largest public recreational tennis facilities. For 11 months of the year, its facilities are open to the public for indoor and outdoor tennis; USTA maintains the facilities year-round. The NTC is also host to the US Open, one of the sport’s four Grand Slam championship tennis tournaments. The event is staged during a two-week period around the beginning of September, is attended by approximately 700,000 spectators, and is broadcast worldwide.
