Newman Mailman

Evidently Newman is a fat, funny “mailman” (get the connection?) on Sienfeld - this is the new labs name… I was voting for Elijah or Harry (Cousin Clint’s favorite name…) but I lost.

Here’s to a long life of peeing on the kitchen floor, and chewing furniture!

Love, Sue

For those if you looking for a low maintenance, fun, profitable (maybe if you’re lucky) baseball pool, here is the deal:
I am looking for 10 teams @ $150/team.
You can have partners (silent or obnoxiously loud).
We draft 3 teams (pool of teams combined from AL and NL). 30 MLB teams / 10 teams = 3 teams each.
The order of the draft is picked out of a hat.
What we are playing for , in the regular season, is combined wins, running tally, by the three (3) teams you draft.
10 teams pick the first 2 MLB teams in the following draft order:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
10
9
8
7
6
5
4
3
2
1

For the third round we throw all teams back into a hat and pick 21-30.
Now 10 teams have 3 MLB teams each.

Payout looks like this:
Based on TOTAL wins of your 3 teams during the regular season (running tally of wins only, not, for instance, how many you won in July only):

End of April $100
End of May $100
All-Star $100
End of August $100
End of Reg Season $200


For the playoffs, it is not combined wins, but simply how far you individual team(s) go:

ALDS Winner $100 x2 ($200 Gross)
NLDS Wnner $100 x2 ($200 Gross)
AL Champs = $150
NL Champs = $150

World Series winner $200

$1500 in...$1500 paid out.

I need 10 teams, and the draft will be Saturday March 31st at a local watering hole in Boston. Yes, you can be at the draft via phone (if you are a girly man).

Absolutely amazing!!!!"

He was killed....

in fact, the ending was genius if you've paid attention to the show or are just a fan of well developed well thought out plots that all tie together and have the memory of a champ to remember it all

the ending was simple, he got killed, but let me tell yall why and explain in detail... There was 3 people in the room total who had a reason to kill tony.....

the two black guys, they were paid before to kill tony but he was only shot in the ear, this was in one of the earlier seasons,

also in the earlier seasons, the trucker who was sitting at the bar stool, who the camera kept focusing in on, is Nikki leotardo, Phil Leotardos nephew, he was in one of the early season episodes where Phil and Tony have a sit down....

heres where the genius comes in....

When tonys walking in the diner,you see the camera focus on him, then it switches to his perspective, and you see him looking @ the booth hes gonna sit at...

then the camera switches back to tonys face, then it once again switches to his perspective, and it shows him looking @ the door and looking @ the people come in..... Everytime the door opens the Chimes sound....... Carmela walks in, Chimes, AJ walks in Chimes, this when Meadows parallel parking, still trying to get inside the restaurant....

at this point the camera switches back to the trucker who goes in the bathroom......

Then it goes to a scene where meadow finally parks and starts running in the diner....

the doors about to open, Tony looks up....

and No Chimes......................

No Music............

Everything just goes black...............

In one of the early episodes of the sopranos, tonys talking with bobby about what it must feel like to die..

Bobby says "at the end, you probably dont hear anything, everything just goes black"


part of that was revisited in the second to last episode during the last seconds of it, when tonys about to go to sleep and he flashes back to the memory of him and bobby on the boat... "You probably dont hear anything everything just goes black"


so in the end, the Journey song was playing, the chimes on the door sounded but when meadow came in, the guy in the trucker hat came out and killed tony...

its the reason you aint hear, or see shit when he died.... it was from his perspective.... and everything went black, then the credits rolled.

News From Africa:

May 26th -

Hi Everyone,
Sorry for the long delay-- the internet access has been very spotty and very slow. Joy and I are currently at the Johannesburg Airport heading to Botswana.They have high speed internet here and we have 2 hours to kill.
After we left Cape Town (no car accidents....), we flew to Zimbabwe for 3 days.
It was a great visit. We are learning so much about Southern Africa and the issue that challenge these people. Zimbabwe is racked with run away inflation.
It goes up daily and they have taken to AM/ PM pricing for many stores. Back in 2000-- one Zim dollar was approximately equal to one US dollar. Now, the exchange rate when we arrives was 37,000 zim dollars equaled---one US dollars.
When we left (3 days later) it was 42,000 Zim dollars to ONE US dollar. We lost $30 in the exchange rate over 3 days...... We calculted that it would cost 2 BILLION Zim dollars/ year to attend Williams or Amherst.
The educational advisor at the embassy in Zimbabwe is terrific--- she made our stay incredibly interesting. We visited a rural boarding school--- we saw 250 student who could not have been better behaved and incredibly attentive. This trip has really hit home what a precious commodity information and knowledge truly is. Although we have not done the typical "African" activities, we really feel very lucky to have met so many different people and have gotten some real insight into all these different cultures. The Zimbabwe education advisor runs a program for talented, low-income students (US Achievers
Program--USAP) We had a great meeting with 50 students from schools around Zimbabwe and then a meeting with 7-8 high school advisors. We can't get these numbers in the US!
The economy is on everyone's mind there--- a student we met (and who is headinig to Amherst next year) is worried about buying her plane ticket--- she can make a reservation now, but they don't let you pay until the day you leave--- who knows where the price will be at that point. joy is looking into having Amherst buy the ticket--- all the little things you learn. Also things like having web pages that do not down load any pictures (just text) for kids in the developing world. I tried to check email at the consulate (some of the best internet connections in the country. I have 30 mins before the session
started-- the Williams Web page never finished down loading in the 30 mins....so no email. Anyway-- more on Zimbabwe when we get back.
We just spent 3 days in Durban, South Africa. A much needed change of pace-- we had a car (we are now competent at driving on the left side) and more flexibility. The place we stayed was terrific, we had a chance to take a few runs along the beach and make some in roads in the schools in the area. We also took a 100 kilometer trip to a boarding school out in the more rural area.
We are headed this afternoon to Botswana for 3 days and then Swaziland for 3 days before returning home on May 31st (arrive June 1st). I doubt we will have internet access after today (maybe), but we are looking forward to our last week. We hope to do a day trip to a "game park" in Botswana and get a chance to take our first full day off with out travel.
We hope all is well at home. Miss you all
Sean and Joy

May 19th
Hi

Sorry for the long delay—it has been a very interesting, but tiring trip so far. We are just starting to get on the correct time zone (lots of awake time between 1-4 am so far).

We spent the first 5 days in Johannesburg—very modern city with extreme wealth and poverty. We visited a wide variety of school with the education advisor from the American Embassy (our first time in an embassy). The extremes are visible in everyday life--lots of private security firms in all the upper class neighborhoods--- lots of very high walls (sometimes razor wire) around house and our hotel as well. We felt like we were in a “compound”—full time visible security force with a manned gate to get in and out. We visited a few of the Andover/ Exeter type schools, as well as, spending a day at school in Soweto. Soweto was like the worst places in the South Bronx, but increase the numbers to 5 million people. They have very limited daily amenities (looks like out side phone booths on most corners—very few phones in houses. The schools are falling apart—no internet access, few have even small libraries. Joy and I spoke at a few of the best schools--- very basic talks about liberal arts, financial aid, applying, etc—very much like talks in the inner city US. We made some very good connections with a few local programs that are helping the low income students (or “learners” as they call them here) apply to universities in SA and around the world—obviously fic aid is the driving factors. Two programs in particular seem very promising if we ever want to get a steady stream of qualified applications from Black or Colored African students.

We flew to Cape Town on Thursday and are now navigating the street on our own (they drive on the opposite side of the road here--- yikes). So far so good—the non-driver is continually saying “left side”, etc. We visited a science-math magnet for low income students yesterday. Today we spent time with a woman that coordinates a “Saturday School” for 11th grade students from shanty towns around the Cape Town area. Fascinating and incredibly sad to see the conditions many of these people live in from day to day--- makes you feel a bit embarrassed when you think that people associate the US with Paris Hilton……

It has been an incredibly interesting trip so far--- tiring but inspiring as well.

We head to Zimbabwe tomorrow--- no more driving for a while--- at least until we return to SA to go to Durbin. We spend all of our time with the US educational advisor in Zimbabwe.

Hope all is well there—talk to you in a few days (or as long as internet connections hold.

Dale & Coco's New Edition

Hello Everyone,

We finally have access to email after a harrowing couple of weeks of surgery, moving, and delivering a beautiful baby girl! Ella Hazelyn Hendricks was born on Tuesday May 15th at 5:12pm. She weighed 7 Llbs 3 ounces and was 20 inches long. The delivery went well and even though Dale is hobbling around on crutches, he was an amazing labor partner. Nicole delivered Ella naturally and if you look at the photo, you'll notice she has a bloodshot eye to show for it--needless to say the last part of the labor was tough. While all of this was happening, we were scheduled to close on our new house the very same day, as a result, the lawyer came to the hospital and Nicole signed the closing documents between contractions (yes, this could be a movie script). So along with a strong little girl, we also have a new house! Dale is still hobbling on crutches, but managed to coordinate the move with the tremendous help of our friends and family (we want to thank them again for the Herculean effort).

So, to get to what you really want, some pics of Ella!
Much love, Coco, Dale, and Ella!

As you may know, I will be competing in my 2nd consecutive Boston Marathon on April 16th, 2007. The first challenge I face will be completing the 26.2 mile race from Hopkinton to Boston. While I know the running is something I will have to go at alone, the other challenge I face is the one in which I need your help.

This year I am running the marathon for The Ally Foundation . I have committed to raising $3,000.00 toward that goal.

I am extremely excited at the thought of competing again in the Boston Marathon, but I also feel privileged to do so, while supporting a good cause. My sincere thanks in advance for your generous donation and for helping me fulfill my dream of running this prestigious marathon.

Thank you,
Casey

Weather Alert - Advisory for Participants in the 2007 Boston Marathon

April 13, 2007

Weather Advisory - 2007 Boston Marathon

The Boston Athletic Association's medical team recommends the following precautions and advice for participants in Monday's Boston Marathon:

FORECAST:
The most up-to-date weather forecast calls for a predicted Spring storm on Monday, including heavy rains (potentially 3 to 5 inches), with the start temperatures in the mid to upper 30's. Wind will likely be East (in the face of the participants for most of the race) in the 20 to 25 mile per hour range, with gusts to as much as 50 miles per hour. This will produce a wind chill index of 25 to 30-degrees Fahrenheit.

RISKS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR RUNNERS PARTICIPATING IN COLD AND WET CONDITIONS:
Combined with the rain, we are concerned that predicted weather conditions will increase the runners' risks for a condition called hypothermia. As with any athletic competition, as a runner you are assuming the risks inherent with participation. It is your responsibility to be informed about the risks associated with running in the aforementioned conditions, and the risks of injury or illness will increase with these predicted conditions.

While exercising in cold weather, our bodies attempt to maintain core temperature by shunting blood away from the periphery, thus minimizing heat loss. Hypothermia sets in when the body's temperature drops below normal, starting when the body loses heat faster than heat can be generated. Heat is produced by muscle action and shivering. Very low body temperatures can be life threatening.

WARNING SIGNS OF HYPOTHERMIA:
Mild hypothermia is heralded by goose pimples and shivering as our bodies attempt to raise our metabolic rates to increase our core temperature.
Moderate hypothermia will result in muscular fatigue, poor coordination, numbness and disorientation.
Severe hypothermia can result ultimately in cardiovascular failure. Treatment of hypothermia requires prompt recognition and treatment as mild hypothermia can progress to a more severe situation if not addressed early.
WHAT TO DO IF HYPOTHERMIA SETS IN:
Runners should be removed from cold, wet, or windy conditions. Wet clothing should be removed, and rewarming commenced with warm blankets and ingestion of warm fluids. If the athlete's condition does not improve, transportation to a medical facility should be arranged. Hypothermia can occur at temperatures at, or below 45 degrees Fahrenheit, or even in higher temperatures when the weather is also wet and windy. Cold temperatures, dampness, and wind increase the risk of hypothermia for runners. Sweat cools the body quickly during cold weather running. Wind evaporates it faster.

As with so many other conditions in sports medicine, our best offense (treatment) is a good defense (preparation). Following the guidelines below will help minimize risk for cold related illness and will maximize your enjoyment and performance during the race:

PRACTICAL ADVICE FOR RACE DAY:
Be prepared prior to the race. Have extra clothing which will enable you to stay dry even before the race begins.
For the race itself, dress in layers of loose, lightweight clothing. The first layer of clothing (closest to the body) should be made of polyester or polypropylene which will "wick" sweat away from the body. Subsequent layers should be loose and breathable-fleece is a good choice. Cotton should be minimized as it can allow sweat buildup. The outer layer should be wind and water resistant, thus protecting from wind, rain, and snow. When in doubt, add the extra layer. You can always remove a layer if you warm up, but you will regret not having it if you start freezing with several miles to go.
Protect your head and extremities. Wearing a hat is essential as up to 50% of body heat can be lost though the head. Gloves are important to prevent exposure to the hands. These, too, can be removed if you get warm, but you'll regret not having them if needed. Mittens are better on colder days as they will keep the hands even warmer. Shield the face with a scarf or high collar. Wear socks that retain heat and wick moisture away.
Runners with exercise-induced bronchospasm should attempt to warm air such as through a scarf or mask. A prolonged warm-up prior to hard running can help minimize symptoms. Carry your inhaler if you use one, and use it should it become necessary.
Stay with your normal hydration regime, remembering not to over drink. Do not drink alcohol the night before the race. Alcohol will make the body lose heat faster.
Run with a partner. It is sometimes difficult to recognize if you are becoming hypothermic. A running partner can help if you get into trouble. Shivering is a sign of hypothermia. The cessation of shivering may indicate more severe hypothermia and the runner should seek evaluation at a shelter.
Consider canceling your run or seek shelter if the weather conditions are too severe or you are too tired. Running on ice or over snow-covered terrain can lead to tripping, falling, or injury.
Medical stations and American Red Cross locations - located every mile along the route - along the course will have buses to handle your medical needs. Rewarming will be difficult given the weather and normal field size, so if you are not feeling well, do not wait to seek medical attention.
Help each other. Be aware of yourself but also make medical team members aware if you see someone on the route who you believe may be starting to suffer from the onset of hypothermia.
TREATMENT OF HYPOTHERMIA
Keep the runner dry and cover with blankets.
Shelter the runner from wind and water.
Provide heat to the neck, underarms, and groin. Heat only the trunk initially to avoid core temperature after-drop. After-drop occurs in this manner: Extremities cool faster than the trunk. If you re-warm the extremities, their colder blood will re-enter the circulation and actually worsen hypothermia temporarily.
Keep the runner lying down, but only in a warm dry location.
Administer warm fluids by mouth if the runner is shivering. If the shivering reflex is lost, a bear hugger should be utilized (loss of the shivering reflex signifies significant hypothermia).
Avoid moving/jarring the runner suddenly because this may trigger an abnormal heart rhythm.
If CPR is necessary, resuscitation should not be stopped until the person's body temperature is at least 95°F/35°C (never give up your efforts). All temperatures indicated are rectal measures, which give a closer indication of core temperature. If the victim is cooperative, you may take temperature by other methods.
