Aberdeen is located in Maryland and is north of Baltimore. It is an excellent vacation spot for family fun, a couples’ getaway, or even a long weekend away with friends. Aberdeen, Maryland is mainly known for being the childhood home of Baltimore Orioles legend and MLB Hall of Famer Cal Ripken Jr.
You are definitely going to want to check out the Susquehanna State Park, it’s a must see and a great opportunity for everyone in your group to enjoy some beautiful scenery. There is a gorgeous waterfall in the park that needs to be seen. If you agree with us when we say wine tasting is always a good idea then a pay a visit to the Mount Felix Winery for a fun, boozy afternoon. One of more popular activities for the whole family is rock climbing at Climbzone. Everyone in your group gets to spend time together and have an excellent time challenging themselves. Finally, for those who enjoy a good spook should go to the Legends of the Fog Haunted House.
We recommend trying to find a waterfront accommodation, along Swan Creek, which empties out into the Bay.
The best time of year to visit Aberdeen is during the summer months. Aberdeen has a plenty to offer year-round so whatever time of year you decide to visit there will always be something to do. However, to really get the most of out your trip you are going to want to visit during the summer, when the weather will be more accommodating for all of the activities you're going to want to do while visiting Aberdeen.
There are some mouthwatering spots for foodies to sample when visiting Aberdeen. Mamie's Cafe is known for having some of the best comfort food in the area and a homey vibe. It is not unusual to see the place packed with locals during breakfast or lunch. If you love Italian, then you’re going to want also to check out The Olive Tree, which is a local favorite in Aberdeen.
This climate histogram shows you the weather patterns in Aberdeen. The warmest months in Aberdeen are July and May, when temperatures reach 95 ˚F. The coolest month is November, when temperatures drop to 23 ˚F. The wettest month in Aberdeen is July with 6.33 inches of rain, while the driest month is February with 1.14 inches of rain.
— I love how AllTheRooms shows a map with room price tags straight away when you search, it makes it so quick and easy to choose the right hotel, at the right price in the right location. Perfect for those with busy lifestyles! The AllTheRooms website is so user friendly. WiFi. Brilliant!
— The great thing about AllTheRooms is their ability to cover all bases. If you are travelling solo, with a partner, friends or even a larger family. There is something there for everyone and that is a hugely powerful tool that I believe it boasts moreso than competitors.
— I love All the Rooms because instead of having to check one place for home rentals, another for hotel, another for bed and breakfasts, and yet another for a room rental in a private residence, I can finally see EVERYTHING at one site; saving me considerable time

Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) has told me, for the third time, that I don’t matter to her. You see, I’ve asked her 3 times what article of the Us Constitution gives Congress the authority for the health care reform bill. Her response—or rather that of her staff—is another form letter espousing the wonders of health care reform. Gag me with a spoon. In fairness, I’ve asked the other Michigan Senator, Carl Levin, also a Democrat, the same question. I’m still waiting for his third answer.
Here’s the email I sent both Senators after their last form-letter responses.
You must vote no on all future votes on the current health care reform bill in the US Senate.
I am disappointed in your failure to answer whether or not you have read the entire HR 3780 and each of the 478 Senate amendments to the bill for which you have voted in favor of cloture. I am also disillusioned by your apparent complicity in the corruption and bribing of your fellow Senators to reach the necessary 60 votes.
You have also failed to inform me as the the specific Article(s) of the US Constitution from which the Congress derives the authority to require citizens to purchase private health insurance. I find it inexcusable that my elected representatives can vote yea on legislation for which they have not established clear Constitutional authority to do so.
According to recent public opinion polls, somewhere between 53% and 85% expect higher costs, either in premiums or taxes or both, from this fiasco. The bill does not enjoy public support and you need to vote in accordance with your constituents. Failure to do so is a violation of their sacred trust. Vote against SA 2786 at the next vote.
My US Representative, Sander Levin (D-Royal Oak), got a similar email from me. And yes, Sander and Carl are brothers. At least Stabenow’s staff sent me a response even while failing to address my questions. The Brothers Levin have yet to do so.
Since Stabenow obviously doesn’t care about her constitutents, I fired off a final email to her.
Why do you refuse to answer this question: what article of the US Constitution authorizes Congress to make laws mandating citizens by anything?
I am insulted by you and your staff. You have repeatedly responded with form letters that fail to answer my fundamental questions. I am not interested in hype supporting health care reform.
You have lost your credibility with me. I will not vote for you in the next election because of your failure to be honest with me.
Nonetheless, I urge you to consider how morally wrong and unethical it would be for Democrats to use budget reconciliation measures to push health care reform through. It is not a budget bill.
I don’t expect to achieve anything with the ignorant, pompous Ms. Stabenow. But I’ve clearly stated my position and that’s as close to the nuclear option as I can get. Truth be told, I wasn’t going to vote for her next election anyway. At least now she’d know—if she ever read my emails.


Most of us use social media on a daily basis. From the obsessive poster with a huge following to the reluctant interloper, people use social media for a variety of purposes. It may be to keep up with friends or colleagues. It may be to keep tabs on what’s going in the world. For many, it’s a way to document our own lives. But with such a pervasive presence in our lives, it’s important to consider how social media can be used for good and how it can lead to problems.
What should you consider before posting something on your social timeline? How can social media affect your relationships with others? How do the various social options differ? Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and more all have unique types of communities with diverse norms and values. How you use each one – and who you connect with on each – will likely differ. Whether you use social media for work or for pleasure, make sure you know what you’re getting yourself into.

1994-95 NBA Hoops Series 1
The NBA season begins tomorrow! Where did the time go? Speaking of, well, time... here's a pack from 25 years ago.
207 - David Benoit - A staple of those really good, but not quite elite Utah teams of the '90s.
274 - Lenny Wilkens - Wilkens started his NBA coaching career in the late '60s and is still alive and kicking today. He's in the Hall as both a player and coach.
135 - Armon Gilliam - I always enjoyed the Hoops card backs. Full color and full of stats. They even included the college stats for a time, which is really cool.
68 - Chris Mullin - A '90s star with a haircut you could set your watch to.
125 - Chuck Person - It looks like Chuck is getting ready to do some serious damage to the hoop.
188 - Wayman Tisdale - The jazz man testifies.
242 - Karl Malone All-Star - I wasn't a huge fan of the early '90s All-Star uniforms, but compared to what they trot out these days, they were downright amazing.
1 - Stacey Augmon - The Plastic Man throwing it down.
93 - Ron Harper - Sadly, we didn't get any Blazers in this pack, but we do have Ron Harper going up against post-goggles Buck Williams.
87 - Byron Scott - Longtime Laker and NBA head coach.
46 - Jamal Mashburn - Was this photo cropped to avoid showing that Dikembe was about to embarrass Mashburn? I think it was.
224 - Kenny Anderson All-Star - Another '90s star in his '90s All-Star jersey.

The Conveyor Belt will remain activated from the moment it is placed. Although it doesn't require any wire, it can be wired to reverse the direction. Like most blocks, they can be shaped into half-blocks and angled slopes using a Hammer, allowing for diagonal movement. The Conveyor Belt moves any valid entity approximately 13 mph and can only be calculated with a Stopwatch while walking into solid objects.
Tips[edit | edit source]
- The Conveyor Belt can be used to push NPCs into Traps.
- The Conveyor Belt can be used to create escalators and treadmills.
- Since Wire costs as much as Conveyor Belts, it is more cost efficient (though less time efficient) to purchase Conveyor Belts instead of Teleporters, which must be connected with wire (however, large amounts of wire can be harvested from naturally occurring traps for the cost of nothing more than a single Wire Cutter.)
- One could combine the Conveyor Belt with an arena setup and effectively farm Events with a high DPS magic weapon. First, you would have to have a large amount of Conveyor Belts, an upwards diagonal escalator wherever it is you decide to stand. Then create a Mana Star farm which can continuously produce Mana Stars (thereby voiding the use of the Mana Flower and the Mana Sickness debuff). You will also receive Mana Stars from the enemies to constantly supply you with ample amounts of Mana. Next, prepare a full Mage load out, with Menacing or Lucky for accessory modifiers, and ideally Nebula armor. The weapon of choice is the Last Prism with a Demonic modifier. If such an arena is needed prior to the Moon Lord, one may find success with the Spectre Armor (damage variable) (or highest tier Magic Damage set available), and a high DPS, piercing, area-of-effect weapon, such as the Razorblade Typhoon or Nebula Arcanum.
- A skybridge made of Conveyor Belts can be used to automatically farm Fallen Stars. Due to the conveyor belt's slow speed, not all stars will reach the end of the conveyor belt in time to be collected (especially on larger worlds). A conveyor belt spanning an entire large world and ending at the world center should collect about 60% of stars that fall on a given night.

Definition of Wearable Scanners
Wearable scanners are a faster, hands-free replacement for traditional hand-held scanners. They are designed to let workers use both hands to perform their other duties while scanning different objects.Read More
Wearable scanners drastically improve workforce productivity and flexibility while reducing errors caused by repetitive actions in workspaces; for example, in the aviation industry, baggage handling agents can conveniently use both hands to move baggage while performing the scanning. These devices are defined by their ergonomic, compact, ease-of-use and durable design. Wearable scanners can be categorized into Glove scanners, Ring scanners and Wrist scanners.
This type of wearable scanner consists of a small, lightweight scanner that sits on the back of the hand with the help of specially designed hand gloves.Read More
Glove scanners help workers perform scanning jobs without the need to reach for a handheld scanner. Glove scanners are completely wireless and have an ergonomic wearable design (e.g. breathable textiles) which ensures minimal fatigue. Glove scanners typically have the capability to integrate with mobile computer solutions or smartphones to process the captured data.
Ring scanners are one type of wearable scanner that are worn on fingers. This compact scanner is normally mounted on a trigger assembly that is directly contacted with human skin.Read More
They are usually paired with wearable, handheld, or other computers to integrate the data capturing procedure. The wearing style and ergonomic design vary between the different vendors.
Like ring scanners, wrist scanners are light and low-profile scanners that are worn on wrist or arm. They either operate as a stand-alone computer device for capturing and processing data or integrate with other mobile computer solutions.Read More
The wearing style and ergonomic design vary between the different vendors.
Benefits of Wearable Scanner

A new bill in Vermont’s Senate would put Vermont’s goal of getting 90% of our energy from renewable sources by 2050 into law.
New Hampshire communities are already acting to adapt to climate change.
For three years now, Big Gas has been spinning tall tales aimed at scaring you and me – and especially our local politicans – into locking in our addiction to dirty, polluting natural gas for decades to come. But their hype ignores the facts and the very real progress made over the past few years to avoid price spikes, keep the lights on, and tamp down our emissions of climate-damaging pollution.
New Hampshire legislators are trying to kill energy efficiency measures that save Granite State families and businesses money on our electric bills. We need you to tell your legislators to VOTE NO to energy-efficiency killing House Bill 317. Proponents of HB317 are calling the funding of energy efficiency an illegal tax, but that’s just an… Continue reading Don’t Let HB317 Kill Energy Efficiency in NH – Tell Your Reps and Senators NO
One of the biggest criticisms of renewable energy is that it is not “dispatchable.” “Dispatchable” electricity generators are the most useful ones to operators of the electricity grid, because grid operators can turn them on and off as needed, and more accurately control their output of electricity to keep the overall grid safe and reliable.… Continue reading Making Renewable Energy “Dispatchable”

Vacay.ca has teamed with Hotels.com to create a series of articles highlighting the best hotel travel experiences in Canada. In our Valentine’s Day roundup, we highlighted Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal. This week we focus on March Break. In our last issue, Waheeda Harris took a look at a few outstanding March Break hotel destinations for families. In this installment, Ofelia Legaspi discusses March Break hotel destinations for singles.
By Ofelia Legaspi
March Break will always be associated with youth. Let’s face it, some of the best (and yes, some of the worst) teen movies ever made centered around college kids heading off to have a great time on some beach in a warm corner of the world. To be single and heading off with your pals for spring break is one of those things you just have to do at least once in your lifetime.
Vacay.ca has compiled six suggestions for singles who want to get out and party like it’s 2015.
JOLIE JUNGLE, QUINTANA ROO, MEXICO — Party or perish
Achieving a sense of balance as a March Break vacationer in Cancun is an art. For a city that oozes tranquility yet seems to be in dire need of a tranquilizer at the same time, it’s all a matter of finding the right parties and then finding the right sanctuary afterwards. March Break in Cancun the classic way, complete with elaborate beach parties with 2 Chainz and 3lau at Inception (think music festival on steroids), then come home to a serene eco hotel in Riviera Maya tucked away in the Mayan jungle, far away from the neon “bros”. This hotel has green roofs, panoramic windows with forest views and colonial-inspired interiors with airy white walls and curtains, earth-tone trims and recycled furniture.
Vacay.ca Tip: Rent a car so you can explore the surrounding sites on your own. Snorkel the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef at Puerto Morelos, channel your inner ape at the Gorilax Jungle Park and sink your teeth into a 65-meter sinkhole at Parque Cenote Las Mojarras.
Hotels.Com Genuine Guest Reviews: 3.8/5
Location: Carretera ruta de los Cenotes Km 26.5 Leona Vicario, QROO, 77548
Hotels.com Room Rate: Prices start at $128 CAD, 866-299-2910. Click here.
HOTEL LA FERME, CHARLEVOIX QUEBEC – Iceland-like getaway in La Belle Province
Hotel La Ferme is a world of its own with its trifecta of ambience, aesthetic and activities. Its award-winning interior design is modern with industrial touches and contemporary art, yet still pays tribute to its pastoral roots with bold timber accents and rustic X and Z wooden overlays on hallways and sliding barn doors. The buildings are set in the gorgeous backdrop of a vast and frozen empty vista, like a barn smack dab in the middle of a field. The gorgeous winter landscape makes its steaming outdoor heated pool even more inviting and exotic – evoking the feeling of travel in Blue Lagoon, Iceland.
Vacay.ca Tip: Resist the urge to luxuriate all week inside the hotel, especially if you got the loft-style room and are taking advantage of the full-service spa. Hotel La Ferme is located in Le Massif de Charlevoix whose 770 metre vertical drop beats Mont Tremblant’s mere 645 metres. Carve out an afternoon to explore Rue Saint-Jean-Baptiste’s quaint small-town boutiques and art galleries or check out the L’Accalmie beachside shipwreck, a popular area attraction and rare site you have to see to believe.
Hotels.Com Genuine Guest Reviews: 4.5/5
Location: 50, rue de la Ferme Baie-St-Paul, QC
Hotels.com Room Rate: Dormitory guest room $85, loft room for $339 and standard room for $199. Click here.
HOTEL ROYAL, NEW ORLEANS – St. Patrick’s Day in the Big Easy
Who is that stunner in the corner, you ask? The one hugged by an intricate balcony lacework of iron? It’s the Hotel Royal in all its 19th century glory, complete with enclosed courtyards and fountains. You can’t do better than New Orleans on March Break as a solo traveller looking to meet new people with good vibes. The Big Easy is all that jazz and more; the people are warm and the music is soulful. The food is a down-home taste infusion of Louisiana Creole. A stay in the NOLA French Quarter is a must if you want to be in the middle of all that hoopla and believe us, you do.
Vacay.ca Tip: The good people of New Orleans have a natural hankering for festivals and though Mardi Gras just passed, they are ready, hungry, even ravenous for another over-the-top parade: St. Patrick’s Day. Come March 17, remember this sentence for the parade floats: “Throw me something, Mister.”
Hotels.Com Genuine Guest Reviews: 4/5
Location: 1006 Royal St New Orleans
Hotels.com Room Rate: Prices start at $168. Click here.
ATLANTIC POINT BACKPACKERS, CAPE TOWN – Embark on a solo African adventure
South Africa is definitely not your typical March Break vacation, but nothing rewards a traveller more than this country. It has so much to offer from its sweeping skyline of rugged and iconic mountains (Table and Lion’s Head) to its awkward and adorable jackass penguins roaming Boulders Beach. Atlantic Point Backpackers is a simple, colourful villa-style hostel where you can rent a cheap bed and socialize with like-minded backpackers.
Vacay.ca Tip: Get out there and explore! This hostel is a 20-minute walk from the cobble stone roads and brightly coloured houses of Bo Kaap and a few minutes, if driving, from the white sand beaches of Clifton.
Hotels.Com Genuine Guest Reviews: 4.5/5
Location: 2 Cavalcade Road, Green Point, Cape Town, Western Cape, 8005, South Africa
Hotels.com Room Rate: Prices start at $77. Click here.
HÔTEL de GLACE, QUEBEC CITY – Chill out at a very cool ice hotel
Let’s just say that this hotel has a cool factor and if you add the fact that you braved it alone, it gives you extra bragging rights. It is the only ice hotel in North America and is flocked by curious, but not-so-brave visitors so you will be sure to meet new people.
Vacay.ca Tip: Book early and immerse yourself in the full Nordic experience with an adventure package that includes dinner and dog sledding. Plus, if the St. Lawrence River is still not thawed, it’s worth it to book an ice canoeing adventure for a complete winter experience. This hotel is also just a short drive from Old Quebec so make sure you explore this taste of Old World Europe.
Hotels.Com Genuine Guest Reviews: 4.3/5
Location: 9530, rue de la Faune Quebec, QC
Hotels.com Room Rate: Prices start at $470. Click here.
It’s not too late to get away this March Break – whether it’s to relax somewhere hot or to squeeze in a last chance ski trip. With thousands of deals that are updated each day, the Hotels.com Last Minute Deals page is a great resource. Check it out here.

Your input is very much appreciated. Share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too!
the perfect touch
These hops are unique, lightweight and fun! They are the perfect touch for my outfits. I am impressed with the overall quality beautiful gold with sparkly diamonds. Looks too cute with even jean shorts and a crop top.
I love these earrings & they shape of them! I’ve gotten so many compliments! A must buy!
They are a beauty of accessories! I am loving these earrings, they go with everything. They are perfect neither big nor small!!
These earrings are so chic. Love the shape and diamond detail.
I wear hoops every day and this is a fun twist on a hoop. The square shape is beautiful and I also love the crystals. Perfect for dressing up or down an outfit.
Love the shape of these earrings, it is unlike anything I own and I'm totally in love.
These earrings are so fun and I’m living in them! Just the right amount of sparkle ✨. Changing it up with the rectangle shape since I normally go for your standard hoop. You’ll want these earrings!
Unique and fun!

I love these earring. They are so cute and the perfect everyday small earrings!


Mariners cap- check.
Mariners tee shirt- check.
Mariners giant number one foam hand- check.
Cracker Jacks- check.
Complete lack of caring if we ever get back- check.
Overinflated sense of solemn occasion- check.
Greatly overinflated, possibly irrational sense of optimism regarding this year’s chances- check.
Yep, we’re all set. We’ve read all the pre-season speculation. We’ve paid attention to spring’s big stories and made our own personal predictions. We’ve thought about where Ichiro might end up, if Felix will really become the King, whether our new acquisitions will provide us with the power we’ve been promised, and what the fate of Hargrove and Bavasi will be. But here we are on Opening Day, and none of this really matters.
This season’s not all about Ichiro or Felix. It’s not about the front office or the payroll. It’s not about starting pitching or corner infielders. This season is about the fans. We’ve heard promise after promise, from last September up to yesterday, that this is going to be a winning team, and more than ever, we need to see that. The team has got to restore the faith of these fans, and they’ve got to do it now. Some of us think we should trade Ichiro for some more pitching; some of us think we need to get rid of Sexson and Beltre; some of us think we need to lose our manager and GM before the month is out. But however we want to get there, we all want the exact same thing- a Mariners club that wins games.
I love Art Thiel’s column today that argues that it’s this first series with the A’s that decides the whole thing. Art may be dramatizing a touch, but it’s undeniable that this team has got to win right out of the gate. There’s more than just the season riding on it- there’s the faith of a whole lot of people.
So we’ve gathered our accoutrements and provisions. More than that, we’ve gathered up all our loyalty and our very last ounce of determined optimism. So let’s do this thing, Mariners. Give us a reason to cheer, and a reason to have faith. We’re all ready to believe in you.


Gravity Separation of Heavy Minerals A Mineral Processing Technique. To perform Gravity separation of heavy minerals in the range 600 microns to 12 microns and to simulate gravity recovery performance on a sample hoping recovery and grade achieved can by higher than in plant operation, will let you analyze the grade/recovery curves permitting
We design, manufacture and supply the MD range of gravity separation equipment including spirals, shaking tables and slurry distribution and laundering systems. Our Australian based head office houses the world's largest spiral manufacturing facility and produces over 20,000 starts annually.
Gravity tests, also known as gravity separation tests, are used to determine if a constituent, especially gold, can be concentrated by exploiting differences in density, shape, and or size between the constituent of interest and the waste material (gangue). 911 Metallurgy specialists have extensive experience in gravity processing and can provide you with the gravity concentration services you need.
Gravity Separation & Concentration Methods. Last replied to by oro Concentrating milled ores with gravity concentrators especially tables and spirals will achieve best recovery by concentrating the head feed in 2 stages and pre screen the corresponding fraction. Ex
The chemical process of concentrating ilmenite and rutile minerals. Mineral sands are physically concentrated using gravity separation (spirals or tables). Ilmenite, rutile and leucoxene have higher SG(4~5) compared to quartz, garnet and kyanite (2.7~3.6). This difference in SG is used to separate the heavy mineral sands from quartz and clays.
Full Service Mineral Processing Laboratory and Metallurgical Testing Facility in Canada. Sepro Laboratories has the capability and expertise to provide solutions you can count on across a wide range of minerals and processes. We are mineral processing experts, focused on helping our clients achieve their business goals with unbiased, accurate
Maximum gold recovery at a very minimal cost in a much safer way is the prime goal of any gold processing operation. Intensive cyanidation on gravity recoverable gold is the best for maximum recovery (cost on reagents), yet, it produces a pregnant solution which must go through electrowinning (cost), and finally through smelting (another cost).
Mineral Processing. If the mineralogy of the ore shows that you can separate discrete particles of the mineral you want from the gangue components of the ore, then it is possible to physically concentrate the valuable mineral and reject the rest. The easiest method for achieving this is by gravity separation.
Our metallurgists are experienced in the comprehensive range of analytical, bench, pilot and industrial scale testing using wet and dry processing techniques. We utilise state of the art process equipment for crushing, grinding, classification and gravity separation as well as high and low intensity magnetic separation equipment for both wet and dry applications, and electrostatic testing.

The second one didn’t totally work, that’s why there’s a rush. Kim can look back with a smile on a successful tour, her first one and you will read about it in this magazine from time to time, because after it we were hanging on her every word. This third LP will be produced again by her brother Ricky, even if he can’t freak on it as much. His part in Kim’s second album was described in the English press as an ego trip of a starting producer. Kim wants a little more input. You’ve earned it, girl.


Jonathan Newell examines the use of vibration reference sources to take the gambling out of ensuring the measurement chain is providing accurate readings.
Vibration is such an important measurement in determining system health as part of condition monitoring that maintaining its accuracy is paramount for recognising changes in vibration characteristics and avoiding expensive failures in machines, eliminating hazards and reducing the likelihood of excessive energy bills.
But what if the measurement process itself starts to fail? Like all electro-mechanical systems, the sensors, cable connections and data acquisition systems themselves can experience installation errors, reliability issues and the possibility of drifts in accuracy that can lead to erroneous data.
Condition based monitoring
Vibration is a good indicator of condition on many industrial systems that have rotating parts such as pumps, fans, motors, compressors and gearboxes. By permanently installing accelerometers on machine casings and bearing housings, process controllers can have access to information processed from a data acquisition system which detects any drift in expected vibration levels.
By acting on this drift, maintenance can be performed on the machine in a cost effective way which exploits planned downtime and could mean that only routine repairs such as bearing replacement are carried out rather than more expensive replacement of assemblies which have been damaged by a machine failure.
The advantages of condition based machine maintenance are well documented, especially with respect to more expensive and complex plant and machinery. By predicting failure rather than reacting to it, the company not only benefits from reduced repair costs but could also preserve its reputation through the avoidance of extended and unexpected outages and through meeting health and safety expectations by avoiding potentially dangerous failures.
With repair costs in industrial environments being potentially very large, a lot of importance is placed on the integrity of the measurement process so the instruments used need to undergo regular planned calibration. However, the fact that an accelerometer was calibrated three months ago doesn’t necessarily mean that the current detection of vibration drift in a machine indicates that repairs are necessary – it might just be a rogue reading. The accelerometer is just one part of a system involving connectors, cables and data acquisition equipment which could introduce spurious errors at any point in the chain.
To establish trust in a reading, calibrated reference sources are increasingly being used to verify the chain of measurement. Such reference sources can be used for frequent accelerometer checks between calibrations and also to establish trust in the chain of measurement if a reading is received that indicates that an expensive repair is necessary.
Using reference sources doesn’t replace the need for calibration of course. Such instruments are not calibration standard and so accelerometers and sensors still need to be subjected to an adequate calibration regime.
An example of a reference source is the ReferenceMate handheld shaker, a 1g vibration reference source from Meggitt. The device is designed to provide a 1g vibration output to the accelerometer it’s attached to in order to either troubleshoot sensor matrices or verify the accuracy of a single measurement channel.
The shaker is designed to provide maximum flexibility for the test engineer, enabling its use for imperial or metric measurements and allowing it to be used with a wide range of accelerometer mounting configurations for sensors weighing up to a fairly robust 250g, the kind of sensor typically used on larger industrial pumps. Sensors larger than 250g aren’t catered for and aren’t widely used since the weight of such heavy accelerometers have a tendency to bias results.
Portable handheld shaker
With a portable reference source, the test engineer need no longer shake the dice when determining the accuracy of a vibration monitoring system. The Meggitt shaker features internal sensor test points which enable a scope to be attached to test the unit itself and provide confidence in the tool being used.
It also has an out of range indicator light. As the power source drains, the ability to provide a consistent 1g output reduces so the illumination of the out of range indicator can occur if the battery power available is not sufficient to provide enough gain to boost the output signal to the required level or if the sensor is over 250 grammes.
When choosing the vibration output, there are 6 configurations all at 1g to choose from, three frequencies each for RMS and Peak levels. These three frequency levels correspond to imperial or metric measurements or the standard calibration conditions for vibration accelerometers as shown in the graph below:
The choice is made by switching the frequency between 61.4Hz, 100Hz and 159.2Hz. The lower frequency delivers 1g in an imperial constant velocity system and the higher frequency delivers 1g in a constant displacement or constant velocity metric system, both of which provide the easiest sets of parameters for engineers to work with.
The 100Hz frequency value is less easy to work with but is the value which corresponds to the calibration certificate which is supplied by the accelerometer manufacturer.
Using a handheld shaker involves dismounting the accelerometer from the machine it’s monitoring and re-attaching it to the shaker and there are many ways in which this can be done. Attachment kits are provided in a variety of configurations with threaded imperial or metric adaptors, magnets, angled adaptors and plates for adhesive mounting.
Test house applications
The use of handheld reference sources isn’t limited to the industrial technology market but also more widely in the crash and vibration testing industry for one-off testing rather than permanent machine monitoring.
The test industry demands are different but arguably just as demanding in terms of the importance of test accuracy. Often, test and measurement users are engaged in one-time, no-repeat opportunities and there’s an imperative to “get it right” first time with no opportunity for retesting.
These tests are usually linked to large facility scheduled maintenance activities which are run on tight schedules or to one time only tests, a prime example being in the aerospace industry.
Flight tests often involve high value no-repeat tests incorporating large arrays of accelerometers. These stringent tests are continually becoming more hungry for data and require more test channels and typically hundreds of accelerometers.
Apart from checking the chain of measurement at 1g, the shaker is also able to verify the configuration of sensor matrices in such complex systems of measurement as used in data intensive crash testing environments.
Practical industrial instrument
The handheld vibration reference source brings another element of the laboratory into practical engineering environments, enabling test and quality engineers to verify the processes they’re using to measure vibration whether in one-shot critical test environments or long-term machine reliability applications.
With the cost of getting it wrong so high, very portable and relatively accessible tools such as the vibration reference source could prevent significant downtime and costly errors.


Citizens protesting against President Gjorge Ivanov’s decision to grant pardons to politicians, have returned from the Parliament building to the Public Office of the President again, but this time with stone, with which they demolished the building.
After smashing all the windows of the building, the demonstrators entered the Presidents office and proceeded to smash computers, tables and chairs, while, chanting “No justice, no peace.”
Police blocked all paths leading to the headquarters of the VMRO-DPMNE, preventing citizens from approaching the building.
The area around the Ministry of Justice and the Public Office of the President is sealed off, while police are attempting to drive citizens from the centre.
Demonstrators then fled to various other areas of the city.
The Public Office which was demolished earlier this evening is now under heavy police guard.

Opponents of plans to build an Apple store on Federation Square in Melbourne want to raise $40 million to outbid the tech firm for the building it wants to use.
The flagship store was announced just before Christmas in 2017 and requires the existing Yarra building on the square to be demolished.
However, the plan has been met with consistent opposition, primarily through the organised group ‘Our City, Our Square’ created a year ago.
At the time of writing it had raised $187,000.
“The idea behind this audacious plan is to raise enough money to buy this building back from Apple,” Our City, Our Square spokesperson Brett de Hoedt said.
“Essentially the Victorian Government has sold it to Apple.
“It might be absurd that the taxpayers have to raise their own money to buy back a building they already own but that is the game we are now playing.
“Even if we don’t reach the $40m target, we highlight the absurdity that we have to raise money to buy back a building that is already ours. It still highlights an unjust situation.”
Apple faces another challenge in getting access to the site, with the whole of Federation Square currently being considered for heritage listing.
Several thousand public submissions have already been received on the heritage listing application. Public hearings will also need to be held, with a final decision not expected until at least April.
"Heritage isn’t just about being an old building," de Hoedt said.
"Heritage is about the meaning of a building or a place to the city. And Federation Square more than any other single place across the state means more to more people more often than anything else.
"Can we just keep this place for the people rather than for selling tech?"

26 June, 2021. Duane, aka Doc Yeungling a member of our group who had moved to northern Florida drove down this Friday to run a WWII game for us at Das Krieg Haus. This will be the scenario he’s going to run at this years HMGS-South’s HurriCon 2021.
The table and figures are absolutely amazing, what a visual treat. Doc Yeungling used Bolt Action V2 rules. I’m sure to many it’s a fine set, however it was mot my cup of tea. Nonetheless it was a beautiful table and a fun game!
Here’s the link for the official Bolt Action rules and products. Bolt Action - Warlord Games
AAR provided by Doc Yeungling who ran the game.
Set in May 1940, near Sudan. French have counterattacked in strength and have a defensive position on an axis of supply, awaiting the Germans.
A German infantry company with support of an HMG, and Medium Mortar section, an artillery batter strike, and air support, with Sturmgeshutz Platoon attached, and Kampfgroupe Commander.
Several buildings are along the road, with assorted trees, walls, hedges, and fields breaking up line of fire, with the crossroads in the left center of the battle.
The French have two infantry platoons supported by a Char Bis heavy tank section, and a light AT gun section, with a medium mortar section. They have managed to get their infantry in buildings and along two stone walls for the most part with squads and support elements in woods, or in the fields to the South of the road.
The German spread out their infantry platoons across the North side of the table to diffuse the combat power of the French and find a place to break the line or flank them. They grouped the assault guns to their left flank.
Though the Germans were able to mass the fire from the assault gun light howitzers, they could not penetrate the heavy armor of the lone French tank on their left. They did managed to pin, and cause some casualties, but the stone buildings and terrain gave the advantage to the French. The Germans attacked the center crossroads with two infantry platoons with their armor support on the left. However, the German assault developed and was slowed by unexpected heavy casualties, and pins, while their tow tanks rebuffed all attacks. At best the German air attack caused pins to the French armor while their third platoon managed to get to the far right flank around the French.
Telling was the inability of the Germans to get a foot hold in the crossroads in a timely manner, with ineffective fire at the French armor.
The Germans lost about 25% of their infantry power trying to get close to assault the crossroad, but could not budge the French, with no real way of killing the armor, until they could close assault with the AT grenades, and Panzerknocker teams, or wait for more air cover, and support.
In the end the French were able to stop the Germans for the morning (marginal victory), but two things were apparent. One, the Germans had worked to the far right flank, and could catch the French defending that side of the table in a crossfire, and assault the flank with a fresh squad, and with heavy casualties the Germans on the left could bring fire from the assault guns to the crossroads on the flank. This while though taking more casualties, the Germans where finally getting into position.

What Causes Migraine And Cluster Headaches
Many experts believe that migraine and cluster headaches share a common cause that begins in the nerve that carries sensation from the head to the brain . Blood vessels on the brains surface expand , causing swelling in an area and pressure on nerve endings. The nerve endings submit signals to the brain to perceive pain. This may also explain some other symptoms associated with migraines, such as nausea, vomiting, and visual disturbances.
What You Need To Do
Develop a Pain Management Strategy With Your Doctor
Cluster headaches usually start at the same time every night, or every day. They are predictable in this way… even if you are episodic.
You know the pain phase is coming and you can often count the minutes it will last. Many times there is no warning before the pain phase hits.
Dealing with cluster migraine symptoms leading up to the pain phase is most distressing.
This is the time to take the medication your doctor prescribed, . The triptan family of drugs is really effective but you’ll need the injectable form or nasal spray. Pills are a disaster.
Read this PDF from Dr. Peter Goadsby on the Treatment of Cluster Headache , print it out and take it with you to your next physician’s appointment to help find the best medication possible.
Cluster headaches are a long, difficult journey. It may be hard to determine your trigger or triggers, and they are severely painful. If you are reading this page, then I suspect you already know this.
Please consider developing a migraine prevention pain management strategy with your doctor, so you can have the best life possible despite this condition.
Here are some other things that will be helpful to do.
Definition Diagnostic Criteria And Forms
Cluster headache is a primary headache disease like migraine or tension-type headache. By contrast to secondary headaches, in which the pain is symptomatic of an underlying brain, cranial or systemic disorder, primary headaches are due to spontaneous activation of nociceptive pathways. CH is characterized by recurrent attacks of short-lasting excruciating pain accompanied by signs of autonomic dysfunction, as described in the second version of the International Classification Headaches second edition criteria presented in table . The patient must have had at least five attacks of severe or very severe unilateral orbital or supraorbital and/or temporal pain, lasting 15 to 180 minutes if untreated. The headache is accompanied by one ipsilateral autonomic symptom among the following: conjunctival injection and lacrimation, nasal congestion or rhinorrhea, forehead and facial sweating, eyelid edema, miosis and ptosis. In the absence of autonomic signs, CH can be diagnosed if a sense of restlessness or agitation is present during the attacks.

Change Language Reduce Stigma
The language used by medical experts, the media, the public, and stakeholders of this community can greatly impact how people living with headache diseases are perceived and treated. This, in turn, affects the resources society makes available to support the communitys pain and disability.
While Cluster Headache Is Side
Headaches can have many causes, some of which are innocuous. But sometimes, they need to be taken seriously. Dr C S Narayanan, VSM, head of department of neurology at Manipal Hospitals, New Delhi, says some of the red flags that would mandate detailed investigations are the onset of headache after 50 years of age, new onset of headache in those with an underlying medical condition or when the treating doctor finds abnormalities on clinical examination.
Those who have these so-called primary headache syndromes can have frequent, severe, and debilitating headaches that adversely impact quality of life. The most common headache that falls into this category is migraine, he explains.
According to the doctor, people are more familiar with migraine than cluster headaches because migraine is much more prevalent. One characteristic feature of migraine headache is it often affects one side of the head. Cluster headache, another common primary headache, shares this feature with migraine. While both are unilateral, cluster headache is side-locked, meaning it involves the same side in each attack, whereas migraine headache can shift sides, says Dr Narayanan.
Since the treatments for the two conditions are different, it is crucial to make the correct diagnosis.

Did you know?
Don’t Miss: Sumatriptan Nausea
Intensity Severity And Occurrence Of Cluster Headaches
Cluster headaches are significantly more painful than tension headaches. They can have been described as having a burning or even a piercing quality. These headaches come on very quickly with the pain becoming worse as time goes on. They often interrupt the flow of day-to-day activities, so it is important to seek a healthcare professional for treatment. However, they are not linked to underlying brain conditions .
As earlier stated, these headaches occur in clusters during one period of time. The sufferer, during that period of time, will have episodes multiple times a day for the duration. The headaches can last anywhere from half an hour up to three full hours. These episodes of cluster headaches can go through remission, but they tend to come back during the same season every year.
What Are Cluster Headache Symptoms
Cluster headaches tend to have very recognizable symptoms. When symptoms set in, it usually only takes 5 to 10 minutes for them to reach their worst. Common symptoms include one sided head pain and other symptoms involving the eye, nose and skin on the same side as the pain.
Pain from cluster headaches
Pain from cluster headaches has a few notable features:
- Often described as a burning or piercing feeling.
- Lasts 15 minutes to 3 hours at a time.
- Typically felt on the same side of the head in the current cycle rarely may switch in the future.
- Always centered behind one eye but can spread over the affected sides forehead, temple, nose and gums.
- Can make you feel like you cant sit still and need to pace, unlike the relief lying down provides for migraines.
Other cluster headache symptoms
Cluster headaches may also cause:
- Congestion: Your nose may run or become stuffy only on the side of the headache
- Eye problems: You may experience a drooping eyelid, eye pain or a watering eye. Your pupil may also look smaller. These symptoms appear on the same side of the head as headache pain.
- Face changes: You may start sweating and your face may become flushed on the side of the headache.

Migraine Attacks That Group Together
Yes, migraine attacks can group together in time. In fact, research is increasingly showing that migraine frequency tends to be cyclical for many patients. Someone can go six months without a migraine attack, then have five in one month, then have a break before another spate of attacks. This is different from cluster headache. It doesnt mean a person has cluster migrainethey simply have migraine attacks that tend to group together in time.
Cluster Headache Vs Migraine
Cluster headaches are headaches that come in groups separated by pain-free periods of months or years.
- During the period in which the cluster headaches occur, pain typically occurs once or twice daily, but some patients may experience pain more than twice daily.
- Each episode of pain lasts from 30 to 90 minutes.
- Attacks tend to occur at about the same time every day and often awaken the patient at night from a sound sleep.
- The pain typically is excruciating and located around or behind one eye.
- Some patients describe the pain as feeling like a hot poker in the eye. The affected eye may become red, inflamed, and watery.
- The nose on the affected side may become congested and runny.
Unlike patients with migraine headaches, patients with cluster headaches tend to be restless. They often pace the floor, bang their heads against a wall, and patients can be driven to desperate measures including contemplating suicide.

To live with her headaches, Cindy uses breathable oxygen, as needed. She is a believer in alternative medicine, she says. Though other cluster patients may use oxygen, too, they typically also use some sort of preventative medication, such as verapamil, and something to try to stop the pain while theyre having it.
Distinguishing A Cluster Headache From Other Types Of Headaches
Cluster headaches usually start suddenly. A small percentage of people experience aura-like visual disturbances, such as flashes of light, before headaches begin.
Most commonly, headaches begin a few hours after you fall asleep and are often painful enough to wake you, but they may also begin when you are awake.
Headache pain becomes severe 5-10 minutes after the headache starts. Each headache usually lasts for several hours, with the most intense pain lasting between 30 minutes and 2 hours.
Cluster headache pain occurs on one side of the head, but can switch sides in some people, and is generally located behind or around the eye. It is described as a constant and deep burning or piercing pain. People with this pain say it is like a hot poker being stuck into your eye. The pain may spread to the forehead, temples, teeth, nose, neck, or shoulders on the same side.
Other signs and symptoms may be evident on the painful side of the head, including:
- a droopy eyelid

Resources For Cluster Headache
Cluster headache resources are available through the National Organization of Rare Disorders . Cluster headache affects a small percentage of the population between 200,000 and 1 million people.2 It had been considered a rare condition but recently researchers have asked for this condition to be reevaluated because of its increasing prevalence. According to the National Institutes of Health a rare disease is defined as a condition that affects fewer than 200,000 people.
What Is Migraine Or A Cluster Headache
Although migraines and cluster headaches both cause severe pain in the head around the forehead, temples or sinuses, they typically feel and act differently.
A migraine is severe pain or throbbing, typically on one side of the head.
Cluster headaches are painful headaches that are shorter in duration but recur over a period of a few months and are followed by a period of remission up to a few years. People who suffer from cluster headaches tend to get them during the same season each year.
A migraine is a common condition that affects more than 37 million Americans, while cluster headaches are rarer and only affect approximately 1 million people.

Barriers To Effective Care
Lack of knowledge among health-care providers is the principal clinical barrier. Worldwide, on average, only 4 hours of undergraduate medical education are dedicated to instruction on headache disorders. A large number of people with headache disorders are not diagnosed and treated: worldwide only 40% of those with migraine or TTH are professionally diagnosed, and only 10% of those with MOH.
Poor awareness extends to the general public. Headache disorders are not perceived by the public as serious since they are mostly episodic, do not cause death, and are not contagious. The low consultation rates in developed countries may indicate that many affected people are unaware that effective treatments exist. Half of people with headache disorders are estimated to be self-treating.
Many governments, seeking to constrain health-care costs, do not acknowledge the substantial burden of headache on society. They might not recognize that the direct costs of treating headache are small in comparison with the huge indirect-cost savings that might be made if resources were allocated to treat headache disorders appropriately.
Build A Cluster History
Write, write, write! The best way to document your disease is to write it down. Keeping a headache diary for at least three months will make it clear that your cluster disease is not only painful, but also prevents you from working even with treatment.
There is a treasure trove of resources out there to help you find your way. Together, we dont have to go it alone.

How Are Cluster Headaches Diagnosed
Your doctor will ask you questions about your symptoms and give you a physical and neurological exam. This may include an MRI or CT scan of your brain to rule out other causes of the headaches, such as a brain tumor.
Treatment involves relieving and preventing your headache symptoms using medication. In rare cases, when pain relief and preventive treatment do not work, your doctor may recommend surgery.
Is It A Migraine Attack Or A Cluster Headache
Migraine and cluster headaches have different symptoms and require different treatments.
Whether youre having a migraine attack or a cluster headache, the pain it causes can be debilitating.
But because the treatments for the two diseases are very different, its crucial to figure out which you have or whether you have something else entirely to have the best chance at easing your pain.
Without the correct diagnosis, its difficult to find relief for your headache, says Merle L. Diamond, MD, associate director of the Diamond Headache Clinic in Chicago.
Heres what you need to know about the symptoms, causes, and treatment options for these two different types of headaches.

How To Get Rid Of A Cluster Headache
Claudia Chaves, MD, is board-certified in cerebrovascular disease and neurology with a subspecialty certification in vascular neurology. She is an associate professor of neurology at Tufts Medical School and medical director of the Lahey Clinic Multiple Sclerosis Center in Lexington, Massachusetts.
Cluster headache is a rare but extremely debilitating disorder that affects about 0.1 percent of the population. Characterized by cluster periods of repeated, severe headache attacks of 30 or so minutes at a time, about 80% of cases are episodicmeaning a month or more time may pass between attackswhile the remaining 20% have no such breaks and are chronic. Treatments of this condition can be subdivided into those that are preventative in nature and those that take on headache and other symptoms after they start.
Because the exact mechanism of cluster headache is not fully understoodand due to the condition being relatively rare or often confused with migrainetheres no singular, gold-standard treatment. That said, there are a number of lifestyle, over-the-counter, prescription medication, and even surgical approaches to this condition. If you suffer from this condition, you may find the need to tailor an individualized approach with the help of your healthcare provider.

Cluster Headaches Have A High Rate of Suicide
If you are living with chronic or episodic cluster migraine headaches, you might find they effect every aspect of your life. You might find them unbearable and frightening, and have suicidal thoughts. That comes with this condition.
Your life can be affected because of decreased interaction with your friends and family. They may affect your ability to work full time.
People without cluster headaches may not understand how painful the attacks are and how much they can actually effect the overall quality of your life. Being isolated and misunderstood can lead to depression and suicide.
You are at greater risk as violent behavior and the propensity to self-harm are cluster migraine symptoms.
You may find encouragement and understanding in a headache support group or you may feel the need to talk with a professional pain counselor or therapist. Here’s who I recommend – Pain Counseling.
Either of these can help you to cope with the cluster migraine symptoms. There is a VERY good chance that the others in the group will be experiencing the same things as you are.
The exact cause of cluster headaches is unknown, so it’s hard to prevent the occurrence. It’s very important to have a preventive strategy because only treating the symptoms with medications can, at times, seem hopeless.

New Findings About Cluster Headaches
- University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston
- Debilitating cluster headaches commonly begin in childhood, but patients are not typically diagnosed until they are adults, according to new research.
Debilitating cluster headaches commonly begin in childhood, but patients are not typically diagnosed until they are adults, according to research from The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston .
A team of researchers led by Mark Burish, MD, PhD, assistant professor in the Vivian L. Smith Department of Neurosurgery with McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston, conducted the Cluster Headache Questionnaire, an international, internet-based survey of 1,604 participants with cluster headache. Results from the survey were recently published in Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain.
Cluster headache is a rare headache disorder, occurring in about one in every 1,000 individuals. They are extremely painful and occur in cyclical patterns known as cluster periods, with most attacks taking place at the same time each day. Cluster headache is diagnosed as “episodic” when the attacks occur in periods lasting between seven days and one year and are separated by pain-free periods lasting three months or longer. Meanwhile, in “chronic” cluster headache, attacks occur for more than one year without remission or with remissions lasting less than three months.
Other key survey findings include:

The Marlins finished up their active trade deadline by making two more deals on Friday.
The first was a bit of a surprise as the team sent RF Adam Duvall to the Atlanta Braves in exchange for C Alex Jackson. It had been reported that the Marlins were in discussions with the Braves, but they were unlikely to send Duvall to their division rival. In the end Duvall returns to Atlanta where he spent the two seasons prior to his time in Miami.
Duvall had a mutual option with the club that he was unlikely to pick up at the end of the season, forcing the Marlins to get some value for the 32-year old right fielder. He had been one of the Marlins most productive hitters this season, blasting 22 home runs and driving in 68 runs in 91 games.
Jackson is a catcher that plays great defense and has big power at the plate. He has spent the majority of 2021 in Triple-A and put up good numbers, posting a .287/.366/.694/1.060 slashline with 11 home runs and 167 wRC+ in 30 games.
General manager Kim Ng said before Friday’s game the team was focused on adding at the catcher position.
“One of our primary targets was creating more depth at the catching spot,” Ng said. “I think we did that today with a couple of new catchers, so happy to have gotten that accomplished.”
Jackson has played in 19 MLB games over the course of the last three seasons and has just three hits in 50 plate appearances, bringing about obvious concerns about his ability to hit at this level. Jackson is set to join the Marlins in the coming days, and the next two months figure to be a try out for the 25-year-old catcher with the Marlins organization.
Ng discussed the acquisition of Jackson, who she said is having a great offensive season in Triple-A.
“He’s got a great bat, he can receive, he’s got a good arm,” Ng said. “So we’re excited to bring him into the organization.”
Henry, 24, was drafted by the Brewers in the sixth round of the 2016 draft. He played the first 30 games of 2021 in Double-A, posting a .315/.392/.405/.797 slashline and 125 wRC+. He was then called up to Triple-A and played 19 games there before the trade, putting up a .262/.338/.361/.699 slashline and 89 wRC+.
Ng discussed the type of player the Marlins are getting in Henry.
“By all accounts and our evaluation, this is a great kid” Ng said. “He comes in with an attitude that is beyond reproach and he is a guy that prepares for the game. With our organization being as pitching strong as it is, we really wanted to make sure we brought in catchers who would really have an understanding of the pitchers.”
Curtiss was one of the Marlins better relievers this season, posting a 2.48 ERA in 40 innings in multiple different roles out of the bullpen.
These two trades added to the Starling Marte for Jesús Luzardo swap with the Oakland Athletics and the Yimi Garcia for Bryan De La Cruz and Austin Pruitt deal with the Houston Astros to round out an active deadline.
The trade of Duvall opened the door for the Marlins to get a look at De La Cruz who was in the starting lineup on Friday, batting seventh and playing right field.
De La Cruz is a 24-year-old outfielder who had great numbers in Triple-A this season, putting together a .324/.362/.518/.880 slashline with 12 home runs and 113 wRC+ in 66 games.

The Marlins also called up OF Brian Miller, who they selected with the 36th pick in the 2017 Draft. Miller has had a long journey in the Marlins organization, playing 373 minor league games over four seasons. His career minor league slashline is .283/.338/.361/.698. He hit eighth and started in left field Friday. He is sure to get his fair share of at-bats as well down the stretch.
When Jesús Sánchez—currently in return-to-play protocols after going on the COVID-IL—returns, the Marlins are likely to have a starting outfield made up entirely of guys who spent time in Triple-A this season. Ng said it will be a good chance for the team to get a look at some of the bats they have that are Major League ready.
“One of the things we’ve always said about our young players is we want them to get their at-bats,” Ng said. “It’s tough for them to come be up here and sit on the bench so this is really a great way to see them.”
While the deadline was active for the Marlins, some expected even more action. Relievers such as Dylan Floro, Richard Bleier and Ross Detwiler stayed put, while Jesús Aguilar—who was reportedly a hot name on the market—did as well. The Marlins also did not make a big splash for 2022 as some had hinted they would do.
The reasons for that will become more clear in the coming days. CEO Derek Jeter made it clear that the team will continue to work to get better even after the deadline.
“Like I’ve said before, this year has been a disappointment up until this point,” Jeter said. “I think everybody in the clubhouse should be saying the same thing, if not then something’s wrong with them. We have high expectations so we have to figure out ways to get better.”
Ng believes the work the Marlins did at the deadline set them up well to make moves in the future.
“The trading deadline is only one period in time,” Ng said. “We talked to all the clubs multiple times, and really, in my mind, set the groundwork for future deals, whether it’s in the offseason, Spring Training, and leading up to Opening Day.”
CEO Derek Jeter shared the same sentiment.
“Just because it’s the trade deadline doesn’t mean you can’t continue to make the team better, the organization better,” Jeter said. “So we’ll continue to look at that.”
Jeter also said the Marlins had “a lot more inbound calls” this year than in years past. He said that shows they are building an organization filled with talent.
“Teams do not shy away from asking for the world in pursuing what they want,” Jeter said, “but I think it validates how we feel about our players.”
Despite that, Jeter did not shy away from the fact that the organization has to get better.
“When we got here, I told you what was gonna happen and what our goals were,” Jeter said. “I think we’re taking steps in the right direction to get better, but we have to get better on the field here in Miami.”
Asked how to take the next step, the Champion in Derek Jeter came out.
“Simple! Win more games than you lose.”
