FROM: BOB GILLULY SPORTS NEWS EDITOR MONTANA UNIVERSITY MISSOULA-- A player isn't necessarily in a slump when he hits 3-for-8 in a doubleheader, hut Montana first baseman Terry Screnar must be wondering if his hitting lately hasn't taken on the characteristics of a slump-- everything he hits goes right to a fielder. Last weekend, Terrible Terry got three hits in eight trips against Brigham Young. But he could have gone 8-for-8 with a little luck. Every pitch Screnar hit in tow games had "base hit" written on it. In the first game against the Cougars, Screnar opened with a long drive that BYU centerfielder Roger Burt grabbed off the wall. Then he slapped a wicked liner right to second baseman Hugh McMillan. In his third trip, Screnar lofted the easiest out of the day, but Cougar rightfielder Bob Mosteller still was almost against the wall when he caught the ball. Screnar doubled and singled his other two trips in the game. In the second game, the Montana All-Skyliner blasted another long drive that Burt grabbed against the fence. His second time up, Terry socked a three-run homer over the right field wall. He was walked his third time at the plate, then was robbed of a sure double in his final appearance when Burt made a sensational grab of another wicked drive. In eight Skyline games this season, Screnar has 13 hits in 29 appearances for a .448 average. This includes four homers, a triple and four doubles, with 13 runs batted in. He has only two errors in the eight tussles, and is fielding .971* Other Silvertips high up in Skyline averages are pitcher-outfielder Butch Hendricks, who is hitting .476; outfielder Floyd Ayers, with a .367 average; catcher Chuck Miltenberger with a .333 mark, and pitcher Ken Wimett, who is hitting .444 in four games.

Jackie Robinson's 1946 Spring Training in Jim Crow Florida
The Unconquerable Doing the Impossible: Jackie Robinson's 1946 Spring Training in Jim Crow Florida To the student: As you read this accounting of Jackie Robinson's Jim Crow experience, ponder the following: • The role individuals played such as Rachel Robinson, Branch Rickey, Mary McLeod Bethune, Joe Davis and David Brock, Mayor William Perry, Clay Hopper, Johnny Wright, Wendell Smith, and Billy Rowe in shaping Robinson's response to the discrimination heaped upon him? • What factors, internal or external, enabled Jackie Robinson to succeed in his quest to cross baseball's color line? • The influence of ideas, human interests, such as the popularity of baseball and sport in American life, and the American consciousness • The impact of press coverage on human behavior and beliefs • The impact of World War II in reducing regionalism and replacing it with patriotic nationalism, civil rights organizations, enfranchisement and voting leverage, economic need and greed Los Angeles, February, 1946 On the late afternoon of February 28, 1946, Jack Roosevelt Robinson and his new bride, the former Rachel Isum, waited for their American Airlines flight from the Lockheed Terminal at the airport in Los Angeles, destined for Daytona Beach, Florida. Jack's attire was very proper, a gray business suit, while Rachel was splendidly outfitted in her new husband's wedding gifts, a three-quarter length ermine coat with matching hat and an alligator handbag. Although they had originally thought to travel by train, the Robinsons had decided to fly to New Orleans, then to Pensacola, and finally to Daytona Beach. There, Jack was to report by noon on March 1 to the training camp of the Montreal Royals, the top triple-A minor league farm team of the Brooklyn Dodgers baseball team.

Understanding Firing Schedules
Understanding Firing Schedules Learn about the components of a glass fi ring schedule so you can create your own schedule for any project you want to try. BASICS – Ramp - Temperature - Hold HEATWORK – Time/Temperature Tango. COE – how it aff ects fi ring schedules. VISCOSITY – how it aff ects fi ring schedules. THICKNESS– how it aff ects fi ring schedules PREDICTION - ending accidents. ANNEALING – how and why EVENIVITY– the magic word. VOLUME CONTROL SPECIAL SCHEDULES for special eff ects. My Personal Promise The temperatures and times I refer to here for fi ring schedules are not guesswork and are not copied from comments of others. There are the result of 40 years working as a glass artisan and over 20,000 kiln fi rings. I made it a point to do comparison tests to rigid standard.

7 Ways to Crush a Hitting Slump
7 Ways to Crush a Hitting Slump By Jon Doyle Baseball Training Secrets.com Baseball is a very humbling game, even for the world's greatest players. At any given time, there's countless Major Leaguers going through a slump. So, what do you do? How do you help someone in a slump? I touched on this topic in my earlier article on slumps, but here are a few more tips on getting your players past this frustrating experience. The Causes of a Slump Most people actually think slumps are created by the hitter doing something wrong with their mechanics. However, what usually causes an ongoing slump is how the hitter is affected mentally. Physical problems are easy to identify and fix. Start with the following basic checklist and then move into the mental aspect. Physical Solutions to a Slump Videotape the hitter in a live game situation. If you can only get batting practice footage, that is ok, but a real game is best. 1. Pick out any flaws you may see. 2. Show the hitter so he or she recognizes the problem and then pick out one or two drills to help with this mechanical flaw. (Quite often I see well-meaning coaches have a hitter in a slump doing dozens of different drills. This just further confuses the hitter and makes it difficult to get out of it.) 3. Get their eyes checked -- you'd be surprised how often this fixes slumps! The good news about getting out of a slump is all it takes is one good swing.

Identifying Incompatible Combinations of Concrete Materials: Volume I—Final Report
Identifying Incompatible Combinations of Concrete Materials: Volume I—Final Report PUBLICATION NO. FHWA-HRT-06-079 AUGUST 2006 Research, Development, and Technology Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center 6300 Georgetown Pike McLean, VA 22101-2296 FOREWORD Unexpected interactions between otherwise acceptable ingredients in portland cement concrete are becoming increasingly common as cementitious systems become more and more complex and demands on the systems are more rigorous. Such incompatibilities are exhibited as early stiffening or excessive retardation, potential for uncontrolled early-age cracking, and unstable or unacceptable air void systems. Based on the experimental work described in this volume, a protocol has been developed to allow product manufacturers, concrete producers, contractors and owners to monitor their materials and concrete systems. The protocol is phased to allow relatively simple field tests to provide early warnings of potential problems, and central laboratory tests to support and confirm the field work. Tests conducted before beginning construction allows users to plan for changes in materials and environment. By monitoring materials with relatively simple field tests during construction, the users can detect when significant changes have occurred, indicating potential construction problems.

The Mental Game of Hitting [ARTICLE]
The Mental Game of Hitting [ARTICLE] http://softball.coachesdirectory.com/article/the-mental-game-of-hitting-article.html Hitting Articles The Mental Game of Hitting excerpt from the book Softball Skills & Drills-2nd Edition by Judi Garman, Michelle Gromacki Hitting is adjusting–adjusting to the pitch, the type of pitcher, the count, the umpire, and the situation. The mental game of hitting begins in practice. In a game, it begins on the bench, continues in the on-deck circle and on the approach to the plate, and reaches its greatest intensity when the batter steps into the batter's box. Batters must be in control of themselves before they can control their at-bat. Self-control leads to body and skill control. Success requires discipline, concentration, and quickness. Hitters should focus on one pitch at a time and on the process of the at-bat–not the result. They learn from every swing as they obtain immediate feedback and make the adjustments necessary for success. Instead of making excuses on a missed opportunity, good hitters figure out what they learned from the situation (too late, too fast, under the ball, and so on) and make mental notes on how to use that knowledge to succeed the next time. They also take note of what they were doing well when successful. Hitting is an attitude. It is confidence. Players should believe that they are al-ways going to hit the ball solidly "on the money!" Focus on the number of "quality at-bats" and not the batting average (because a hitter may hit the ball well but at someone).

IAI Procedure for Performing a Concrete Air, Slump, & Cylinder
IAI Procedure for performing a concrete Air, Slump, & Cylinder Review (Minimum once per year) General Requirements and Sampling: To determine if the project needs a federally required project review for concrete air, slump, and cylinder check the Project Summary sheet and see if boxes are checked “YES” in the concrete area (Agency/Contractor). If so, you will need to make sure both the field and plants are covered for the year. 1. First review the project proposal to check concrete mix designs, Special Provisions, or any other unusual circumstances that may be spelled out (admixtures, water reducer allowed, supers, spread test, placement, etc.). 2. Once the job is underway, check Metro Inspection’s “Request for Inspection” orders database DAILY to follow progress; here is where some advance planning and coordination comes into play: If you need an IAI check of field personnel ONLY, check Metro Inspection’s orders database in the EARLY AM (just after 6:00) to see which plant the job S.P. mix is coming out of; print out a copy. If the plant has already been covered for the year, you must still determine who is performing the plant Q/C and agency Q/A for the pour that day (for the cross-reference). This is accomplished by visiting the plant after the field review or calling the plant Q/C to find out who was doing the work. If no one is there, check Metro Inspection’s plant diary for names - need both Q/C and QA personnel. If you need BOTH the field personnel and plant you should check Metro Inspection’s orders database LATE in the afternoon of the day before the pour; print out a copy.

A Prolonged Slump for Â•Ÿplaintiff-Pitchersâ•Ž: the Narrow Â
A PROLONGED SLUMP FOR "PLAINTIFF- PITCHERS": THE NARROW "STRIKE ZONE" FOR SECURITIES PLAINTIFFS IN THE FOURTH CIRCUIT MARC I. STEINBERG* AND DUSTIN L. APPEL" This Article focuses on the narrow "strike zone" that plaintiffs must overcome in private securities actions instituted in the Fourth Circuit. Based on empirical data generated over a fourteen-year span, there emerges a clear finding that during that time period defendants were victorious in almost all cases, either on the merits of the case or due to procedural obstacles. The authors posit that this pattern of difficulty for plaintiffs arises, at least in part,from the Fourth Circuit's restrictive interpretationof various requisite elements of these causes of action, such as materiality and scienter, as well as the Fourth Circuit's approach to the pleading standards mandated by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The authors examine in detail some of the leading securities cases that establish Fourth Circuitprecedent in these areas, as well as notable cases from the survey period, to illustrate the confines of the narrow "strike zone" available to plaintiffs to establish a meritorious claim.
