    Introduction

    11 INTRODUCTION As the 20th century melted into the 21st, the well-meaning folks at Minor League Baseball made plans to celebrate the 100 greatest teams in the history of the minors since 1901. A hundred teams for 100 years. Assigned to rank the teams were highly respected baseball historians Bill Weiss and Marshall Wright. The job — as with all efforts like this — was a thankless one for Weiss and Wright. Really now, who could say for sure if the 1920 St. Paul Saints, who were No. 6 on their list, were that much better than, say, the 1990 West Palm Beach Expos, who checked in at No. 89? C’mon, were the 1903 Jersey City Skeeters appreciably better at No. 7 than the 1983 Reading Phillies were at 62? How does one differentiate between teams? The teams ranked in the Top 100 played in different classifications in dramatically different eras with demographics that kept teams in the minors from being nothing more than a whites-only club until 1946, when Jackie Robinson made his debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers’ top farm team in Montreal. These variables made the rankings flawed from the outset, when the 1944 Milwaukee Brewers were the first team announced at No. 100. Eventually, the countdown reached 73, and that was where Minor League Baseball placed the 1993 Harrisburg Senators. Seventy-freaking-third. Anybody who saw that team knew better. More than 15 years after its release at the turn of the new millennium, the MiLB Top 100 list — specifically, Harrisburg’s ranking — still irked Jim Tracy, the Senators’ manager in 1993.

    Katyn Crime Had Been Committed

    Katyń 80th anniversary a reminder of the crimes of Soviet Russia committed against Poles in 1937-1941 Created by: Andrzej Burghardt Zbigniew Koralewski Krzysztof Wąż © COPYRIGHT 2021 Coalition of Polish Americans Knowledge of the history of Poland, our country of origin, including the tragedies of which Katyn is a symbol, is an extremely important element of the sense of national community. For a numer of reasons, the history of Poland, especially the period of World War II, is distorted and deformed, also in the United States, so we must strive to learn the truth about these events. This presentation will acquaint you closer with: Polish Operation; secret protocol between Germany and Russia; Hitler's orders; methods of extermination of the Polish nation; the Katyn massacre; deportations of Poles to Siberia; hiding and falsifying the truth about the Katyn genocide and deportations to Siberia. Polish Operation by NKVD in 1937 „Polish Operation” was carried out by the NKVD (communist secret police) two years before the Second World War. It consisted in arresting of people of Polish origin who lived within the domain of Soviet Russia. According to the documents, almost 240,000 people were imprisoned at that time, of which almost half were murdered, the rest were sentenced to stay in labor camps or deported to Kazakhstan and Siberia. Victims of the NKVD „Polish Operation” The action covered all suspected of Polish origin. Poles were killed or deported for only one reason: because they were Poles. This served as a model for organizing later mass arrests, forced resettlements and murders such as in Katyn.

Biggest factors in the rosy outlook, according to Bolstad, are experience and balance. The Gophers top four men, Gene Hansen, Capt. Carson Herron, Rolf Deming, and Jim Pfleider are extremely well matched, and Bolstad says he can't chose between them as to excellence. The other members of the squad's top six are Harry Newby and Les Peterson. Bolstad hopes his squad will continue the great improvement demonstrated last year when the Gophers catapulted from ninth to fourth place and almost finished second.

    Weekly Notes 072817

    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

    Cinéma En Plein Air VII Édition I MICHEL PICCOLI Jardins, 8-19 Juillet 2013

    Cinéma en plein air VII édition I MICHEL PICCOLI Jardins, 8-19 juillet 2013 L’édition 2013 du Cinéma en plein air rend un hommage exceptionnel à Michel Piccoli, immense artiste de l’histoire et de l’actualité du cinéma, avec un ensemble de films avec lui et de lui. Choisis avec sa collaboration, ceux-ci mettront particulièrement en valeur le rôle crucial joué par Michel Piccoli dans le cinéma européen. En parcourant l’histoire du cinéma français, il est difficile de trouver un acteur de la même étoffe que Michel Piccoli. Sa carrière cinématographique riche et diversifiée a vu l'acteur français jouer dans plus de deux cents films, qui ont donné lieu à des rencontres avec les plus grands réalisateurs transalpins et d'Italie, dans des rôles mémorables. Acteur de théâtre et de cinéma, Michel Piccoli interprète avec justesse et invention les rôles les plus complexes et opposés, s’adaptant aux univers et aux langages cinématographiques les plus divers. Artiste de renommée internationale, on le retrouve dans les films de Demy, Rivette, Sautet, Buñuel, Rouffio, Ferreri, Petri, Bellocchio, Hitchcock, Skolimowski, Doillon, Carax, Malle, Chabrol, Deville, Renoir, Godard, Lelouch, Granier-Deferre, Tavernier, Chahine, Resnais... Acteur de génie, il a également réalisé des films importants. Son étonnante capacité à investir ses rôles, à travailler dans la recherche et le mouvement continus, font de Michel Piccoli une véritable icône du cinéma. Du lundi 8 au vendredi 19 juillet pour le Cinéma en plein air l'Académie de France à Rome ouvre une fois de plus les jardins de la Villa Médicis, dont la salle de cinéma porte déjà le nom de Michel Piccoli.
