San Francisco Giants could have a building block in Sammy Long by David Hill

Anthony Bender wasn’t a commitment that would make headlines for even the most die-hard Miami Marlins fans. He was a former selection in the 20th round in the 2016 MLB draft, which has already been published by two organizations. At the age of 26 to kick off the 2021 season, Bender would likely play in the top minor and potentially take a look at the majors if he performs well.

Instead, he never threw the minors in for the marlins. In fact, since his debut on May 5th, he’s had one of the most impressive starts of any pitching career to begin with.

With 1.2 goalless innings today, RHP Anthony Bender now has the seventh longest streak without a deserved run starting his career in MLB history with 19.1 innings. Brad Ziegler (OAK) holds the record with 38.0 IP without allowing a deserved run from May 31 to August 12, 2008.

Anthony Bender could be a long-term asset to Miami Marlin’s bullpen

As the Marlins strive to build a sustainable competitor, it will be important to find parts for the bullpen. Their starting rotation already has the potential to be one of the best in the league, with a strong core and several fascinating pitching prospects waiting in the wings. While it is possible for some of these arms to end in relief, the bullpen needs to be the focus.

Bender shows that he can be part of this future. In his 19.1 innings, he has only allowed two undeserved runs out of eight hits and five walks, cutting 23 batters. Opponents hit him with a .129 / .214 / .129 clip, showing that there is more than luck involved.

Despite being a right-handed pitcher, Bender was effective against thugs from both sides of the plate. Lefties only produce one .182 / .250 / .182 batting line in their 24 record appearances against him as he shows the potential to be a weapon regardless of the hitter.

Should Bender continue to dominate the Marlins bullpen, it would be no surprise that he gets more work with high leverage. He’s already won three holds this year, and with the Marlins looking for a near future, Bender might be considered for such a role.

The Miami Marlins had to find parts for their bullpen to build around. Anthony Bender could be one of those arms.

Wisconsin congressman tries to ban ‘critical race theory’ in District of Columbia schools

WASHINGTON — A Republican member of the U.S. House from Wisconsin wants to restrict how District of Columbia public school teachers talk about racism and sexism, drafting a bill that’s the latest attack by the GOP against discussions of race and gender in U.S. schools.

The recent bill introduced by Rep. Glenn Grothman, titled the “Ending Critical Race Theory in D.C. Schools Act,” focuses narrowly on D.C. public schools.

It typically would be beyond the scope of Congress to define what teachers in a specific school district can or cannot do, but federal lawmakers have unique oversight of D.C.’s local laws—a main reason why D.C. advocates are seeking statehood. Grothman sits on the House Oversight & Reform Committee, which has jurisdiction over D.C. municipal affairs.

Under the legislation, “no employee of the District of Columbia Public Schools or the District of Columbia Public Charter Schools shall compel a teacher or student to adopt, affirm, adhere to, or profess ideas that promote race or sex stereotyping or scapegoating.”

“Race or sex stereotyping or scapegoating” is broadly defined to include a range of “divisive concepts,” such as the discussion of the United States as a “fundamentally racist or sexist” country; individuals as “inherently” racist or sexist due to their race or sex; or that someone should feel “discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress” because of their race or sex.

The measure — which has four Republican cosponsors, including Rep. Bob Gibbs of Ohio — has virtually no chance of advancing in the Democratic-controlled U.S. House of Representatives.

But it’s the latest example of a broad wave of outrage in statehouses and Congress over what’s known as “Critical Race Theory,” which has been used as a catch-all term to describe a range of attempts to address and discuss racial inequities.

Grothman’s staffers did not respond to an interview request from States Newsroom about his new legislation.

A news release from his office Friday said the measure would ensure critical race theory “will no longer be present” in D.C. public schools. But the release did not specify any current curriculum or teaching methods within the district that would be prohibited under the bill.

“The CRT curriculum that ‘enlightened’ educators are regurgitating teaches our children hate—to hate each other and hate their country,” Grothman said in the news release. “In other words, students are being taught that they are defined by the color of their skin, not the content of their character. This neo-racist ideology should have no place in our public education system, especially in our nation’s capital.”

District of Columbia Public Schools Chancellor Lewis D. Ferebee said in a statement: “DC residents are already denied voting representation in Congress. They should not be denied the right to teach children an accurate representation of American history. Efforts to minimize and even eliminate discussions on systematic racism in our schools do not align with our values as a school system.”

He added, “DCPS is committed to engaging students, families, and staff in courageous conversations about race and intersectional identities. We strive to make space for students and staff to process how these systems affect their homes, schools, and communities. We have a long way to go, but I am proud to lead a district that is mobilizing to build a more equitable and inclusive space for our students to learn and grow.”

Grothman also has cosponsored several other bills seeking to ban critical race theory.

One measure seeks to block the teaching of critical race theory to federal employees, and another would prohibit the use of federal dollars for any employee training portraying the U.S. as fundamentally racist or individuals as inherently racist or sexist due to their race or sex.

Those who teach about critical race theory say conservative politicians are not correctly describing the approach and the extent to which it is used in schools and workplaces.

The field of critical race theory started as a way to analyze the U.S. legal system. Proponents argue that, because race is a social construct, laws and other social norms are what perpetuate racial inequities.

One of the theory’s central tenets is that U.S. society and government have always promoted racial disparities.

But opponents have forged ahead amid critique of how they’re defining the term. As a result, teachers across the country are grappling with how to respond to, or accommodate, the new policies.

Grothman’s bill isn’t the first time that he’s sought to tamp down discussions of race and racial inequity related to schools.

When the House Education and Labor Committee held a hearing last year on racial disparities that intensified across the U.S. education system amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Grothman, who serves on that panel, stated: “I don’t like to talk about race.”

“It’s a little difficult to be on here because it kind of appears in this committee we’re supposed to look at people racially, and not look at people as people,” Grothman said, according to the Wisconsin Examiner. “So, I’ve got to switch my mindset.”

What's with Rapid Traffic Masterclass plus Reviews and bonuses

Quick Traffic Masterclass is a brand-new product by Stefan Ciancio. In other words, it is making specific niche sites and driving traffic to them through a specific Pinterest technique. Then monetizing them with Adsense. Well put together and while Pinterest is not new, I truly liked the Pinterest method Stefan uses.

Likewise, it's a fact that Stefan is doing this, and he is making it work. He has actually made some little niche sites, and been using Pinterest to own traffic.

That said, he bounce rate is high, and the average view time is low. Probably due to the truth he has outsourced his material and that it is not engaging readers. If you put more effort into better content, not only will these numbers improve, however you have a far better opportunity to rank greater too.

BUT ... He is generating income with Adsense and using his Pinterest method (complimentary) to do this so fair play to him. Which is all that counts truly.

It is an easy procedure and if you have a specific niche site currently, then follow his Pinterest method (maybe 30 min a day) and after some consistency, you will have the ability to see some daily earnings. You can do his method by spending for a software or FREE. I am checking his totally free method out now on an entirely brand-new site.

Simply ensure your specific niche is something that has a big female audience. Many (not all course) of Pinterest's readership is female.

Rapid Traffic Masterclass Evaluation Video

In spite of the issues I made in the video, I think as soon as you have your website all set, this is a pretty cool and easy traffic approach. You will need to correspond in your efforts though and have persistence to see any success.

Likewise, to speed it up, Neil Moran and I have made the very best reward around for this item bar none. No-one else is offering the combination of traffic, SEO and Certified Public Accountant monetization that we are.

Fast Traffic Masterclass Funnel

Rapid Traffic Masterclass ($ 14.95-$ 17) FE is a combination of:

1) A case study showing exactly how Stefan got 60,000 visitors to his websites utilizing totally free traffic (Pinterest).

2) Video training showing how your subscribers can set this up.

OTO1: $37 Case studies of visitors being obtained with the method, additional money making techniques and extra specific niches.

OTO2: $47 Done For You Deal.

Both the OTOS have lite plans as downsells.

SUGGESTION: Get the F/E and 'possibly' OTO 1. DFY are seldom worth it. Others will advise it as the JV competition is based on overall sales. Just a little FYI.

Rapid Traffic Masterclass Pricing Structure.

Opens Nov. 26th at 10am EST:.

$ 14.95 early riser for the very first 8 hours.

25 cent cost increase every 6 hours.

Paid traffic readies ... complimentary traffic is great (but only when it is simple to source and highly targeted).

Totally free traffic ... Actually?

You've seen the items and the guarantees, do they turn out?-- Not typically

But RTM is in fact Great, its also easy, cost free ... and it's special ...

OK, exactly what does RTM represent?

Well it represents Rapid Traffic Masterclass ... and if I'm sincere I don't like the name, kind of summarize among those low-cost & nasty courses. However that isn't the case, which's the only thing I do not like about it ...

In fact I spent the very best part of yesterday afternoon going through this ... and I kept going through it due to the fact that it was that great.

Go here for more: http://cli.re/IMdealoftheday 

Now I could shroud the whole thing in mystery and get you to click my link from interest but I won't ... Not today. I'll give you the bare bones, then you can choose if you want the real nut's and bolts ...

Where does the totally free traffic come from?

In a word 'Pinterest'.

I know, I know ... you attempted that and it didn't exercise for you ... right?, yeah me too ... But I was doing it incorrect, and I wager you were too. In fact I might have kicked myself when enjoying the videos in module 2. I've never seen Pinterest used in this manner ... Never, but it works incredibly well.
