Medal Saint Rita

admin — Sun, 06 Feb 2011 13:53:31 +0000

Okay Sports Fans, Can you tell me why St. Rita is Patron Saint of Baseball?

I was wondering if anyone could tell me why St. Rita (the patron saint of abuse victims, against loneliness, against sterility, bodily ills, desperate causes, difficult marriages, forgotten causes, impossible causes, infertility, lost causes, parenthood, sick people, sickness, sterility, victims of physical spouse abuse, widows, and wounds) is connected to baseball. Some of the medals that can be purchased, have an option to have a baseball player on the back. Just wondering. Thanks!

Mighty fine question. According to an article on catholicherald.com:

"If there has been a run on St. Rita medals and holy cards at Catholic shops over the past few weeks, blame it on a family film released in April entitled "The Rookie." Based on a true story, and starring Dennis Quaid, it's a baseball tale that opens with a couple of nuns sprinkling rose petals from a basket while praying to St. Rita over the site of an oil well near the little town of Big Lake in west Texas in the 1920s.

According to the story's narrator, the nuns invested money in an oil well scheme that started to turn sour. When the nuns couldn't get their money back a Catholic priest advised them to pray to St. Rita, the patron St. of the impossible, and sprinkle rose petals on the well site. The Santa Rita well, named for its patron, not only produced oil but also (according to the film) a couple of major league baseball players. During the 21 months it took for the well to start spouting oil the Santa Rita crew built a baseball field near the well, and played baseball to while away the hours. Some of the crew got to be very good ball players.

Thirty years later the story of the Santa Rita well is told to a teenage boy who wants to be a major league pitcher. The teenager grows up to be the Quaid character, Jimmy Morris, a 30-something high school baseball coach who tests his arm at the old Santa Rita well and summons the courage to try out, late in life, for the big leagues."

how many different ways can a gold, silver, and bronze medal be awarded if there are 6 sprinters in the race.?

Well!!
As you have only three medals, only those 3 who finish first will get it!!

No. of possible arrangements = P(6,3) = 6!/(6-3)! = 6! / 3! = 120

Thus, you can give the medals away in 120 different ways

Pinewood derby

Origins

Petty Superbird

Cubmaster Don Murphy organized the first pinewood derby, held on May 15, 1953 in Manhattan Beach, California by Pack 280c. Murphy's son was too young to participate in the popular Soap Box Derby races, so he came up with the idea of racing miniature wood cars. The cars had the same gravity-powered concept as the full-size Soap Box Derby cars, but were much smaller and easier to build. After Don Murphy's first race in 1953 the Los Angeles County Department of Recreation copied the pinewood derby with Murphy's permission.

In the 1980s, the design of the block was changed from a cutout block, consistent with a 1940's style front-engined Indy 500 car, to a solid block. The tires were also changed from narrow, hard plastic, to wider "slicks".

Construction

A Cub Scout holds a winning pine car

The Scout is given a block of wood made of pine with two notches for wheels, four plastic wheels and four nails. The finished car must use all nine pieces, must not exceed a certain weight (usually five ounces), must not exceed a certain length and must fit on the track used by that particular scout pack.

Blocks can be whittled with a hand knife or a band saw or Dremel carving tool for major shaping. Decals can be bought at scout shops or hobby shops. It is also possible to use standard model decals to replicate actual racing cars such as Richard Petty's 1970 Plymouth Superbird, shown at right. The original style is based on open wheel cars, however, fender or body kits are available, or wheels can simply be placed outboard of the body.

Other than the previous basic design rules, the Cub Scout is able to carve and decorate the car as he chooses. Many Cub Scouts also add weights to the final design to bring the car to the maximum allowable weight; coins, glue-in lead pieces, and melted lead are common ways to add weight. Cars typically vary from unfinished blocks to whimsical objects, to accurate replicas of actual cars. The fastest cars tend to resemble low doorstops, with weight at the rear. Graphite is usually the only lubricant allowed, and it often helps to polish the provided nails.

The idea behind the pinewood derby is for the parent, usually the father, but occasionally the mother or grandparent, to spend time helping the child design, carve, paint, add weights, and tune the final car. However, it is often the case that the parent takes over the construction of the car, an aspect of the event that was lampooned in the 2005 film Down and Derby, and also in a 2009 episode of South Park. The quest for a fast car supports a cottage industry that supplies modified wheels, axles, and blocks as well as videos and instruction books. While a pinewood derby car kit costs around $4, a set of modified wheels and axles can sell for more than ten times that amount. These aftermarket items are legal under some Pack rules since the parts originally came from an official BSA kit. Complete cars can be purchased on eBay and elsewhere for around $100 to $200. Although these cars violate the spirit of the event, if not the rules, enforcement can be difficult.

Pinewood Derby Donahue 1972 AMC Matador

Model manufacturer Revell was licensed by the BSA to produce pinewood derby kits with a release in December 2009.

Competition

The track usually has two to six lanes and slopes down to the ground, since the cars are powered by gravity. Tracks may be owned by the pack or rented. The race is run in heats, giving every car the chance to run on each lane. The racers can be grouped with others from the same rank (Tiger Cubs, Wolf Cubs, Bear Cubs, etc.), or can compete against the pack as a whole.

The first, second, and third place winners usually receive ribbons, medals or trophies. Some packs also award on the basis of car design. The first place race winners get to advance to the district level, then each of the district-wide race winners get to race each other from across the entire council.

Other races

Pinewood derby cars ready to race

As the popularity of the pinewood derby grew, other organizations adopted the concept. Pinewood derby is a registered registered trademark of the BSA, so most use different names. Each derby has slightly different rules for making and racing their cars.

Awana has the Awana Grand Prix.

Christian Service Brigade uses the name Shape N Race Derby.

Royal Ambassadors have RA Racers.

Royal Rangers use a different kit with screw axles and dowel rod axle supports.

Scouts Canada has the kub kar rally for Cub Scouts and beaver buggies for Beaver Scouts.

YMCA chule cars use the same kit as the Royal Rangers.

Valve cover racing is an event at some car shows using vehicles made from valve covers.

Car modifications

Stock wheels (left) and modified (one gram) wheels (right)

Car track

The forces propelling a pinewood derby car are gravity and inertia, the opposing forces are friction and air drag. Therefore, car modifications are aimed at maximizing the potential energy in the car design and minimizing the air drag and the friction that occurs when the wheel spins on the axle, contacts the axle head or car body, or contacts the track guide rail. Friction due to air drag is a minor, although not insignificant, factor. The wheel tread can be sanded or lathed and the inner surface of the hub can be coned to minimize the contact area between the hub and body. Polishing the wheel, especially the inner hub, with a plastic polish can also reduce friction. Often one front wheel is raised slightly so that it does not contact the track and add to the rolling resistance. Axles are filed or lathed to remove the burr and crimp marks and polished smooth. More extensive modifications involve tapering the axle head and cutting a notch to minimize the wheel-to-axle contact area. Note that packs can establish additional rules for what, if any, modifications are allowed. In some areas, no changes can be made to the axles or wheels.

A second consideration is the rotational energy stored in the wheels. The pinewood derby car converts gravitational potential energy into translational kinetic energy (speed) plus rotational energy. Heavier wheels have a greater moment of inertia and their spinning takes away energy that would otherwise contribute to the speed of the car. A standard wheel has a mass of 3.6 g, but this can be reduced to as little as 1 g by removing material from the inside of the wheel. A raised wheel can reduce the rotational energy up to one-quarter, but this advantage is less with a bumpy track.

A proper lubricant, typically graphite powder, is essential. Wheel alignment is important both to minimize wheel contact with the axle head and body as well as to limit the contact between the wheels and guide rail as the car travels down the track. The center of mass of a typical car is low and slightly ahead of the rear axle, which helps the car track straight as well as providing a slight advantage due to the additional gravitational potential energy.

The Medal of Honor and the Soldier

Since March 26, 1863, the Medal of Honor has been given to soldiers who have given their all or performed extraordinary feats on the battlefield. The medal is not something that soldiers seek to receive. It is a medal unlike any other in the ranks of the military. There are no requirements that automatically qualify a soldier to receive it. It is a medal that exemplifies the true meaning of honor.

The first soldiers to receive the Army's highest honor came from a Union Army scouting detachment known as “Andrews’s Raiders". Six of these soldiers were captured after an 1862 exploit that involved a daring mission to steal a Confederate railroad locomotive.

The story about their Medal of Honor presentation states that Private Jacob Parrot was the spokesperson for the six Union soldiers. He was only nineteen and was the youngest of the group. After their release, the soldiers were taken to Washington D.C. to debrief the Judge Advocate General about their last mission. During this debriefing, leaders of the Union learned that of the original 22 soldiers of "Andrews's Raiders" six had been executed, eight soldiers escaped successfully, and six had escaped and had been recaptured. For their heroic efforts in fighting for the Union, the six soldiers received $100 dollars, a commission in Ohio regiments, and the first medals of honor.

President Lincoln signed the Army Medal of Honor bill into law on 12 July 1862. The government contracted Wilson Silver Smiths in Philadelphia to produce the medals. The initial 500 medals were given to the War Department on February 14, 1863.

Since the Civil War, the Medal of Honor has been given to soldiers who faced incredible odds, resulting in extraordinary successes. While many of these medals have been given posthumously, they are just a small token of our appreciation to these brave soldiers who stood to defend our freedoms and our way of life.

Navy Medals

In the US military patches, medals and awards are selected for each area of military service such as army, navy, air force, coast guard, separately. Each sector of the military has their own kind of military patches, chevrons, ribbons, etc. The navy is the section of the military that regulates sea warfare and defense. Navy medals are rewarded in appreciation of special feats such as the metal emblem for meritorious service of naval personnel. The Medal of Honor for the navy was first introduced in 1862. The concept of medals had evolved from the practice of bestowing insignias in the knight hood.

Navy medals are a way for personnel to express their bravery and commitment to risk their life for the nation, and they should be worn with pride. Navy medals are generally made from precious metals such as gold, silver, bronze, or lead. Navy medals are attached to ribbons which can be pinned to a uniform or worn around the neck. Shields or hangers are used to connect Navy medals with the ribbons. Navy medals are beautifully decorated and can be overlaid with particular symbols of the country such as an eagle. Navy medal ribbons represent the characteristic colors of the country. In the past, the reverse part of Navy medals was encrypted with the name of the recipient to avoid loss or theft.

Navy medals are divided into different categories depending on the relevance of the committed action. The supreme Navy medals are given for deeds which have contributed to the victories or successes of missions. Sincere service of navy members is rewarded with unit medals and service medals. Navy medals include Navy Medal of Honor, Navy Cross, Defense Distinguished Service Medal, Navy Distinguished Service Medal, Silver Star, Defense Superior Service Medal, Legion of Merit, Distinguished Flying Cross, Navy & Marine Corps Medal, Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Defense Meritorious Service Medal, and many more.

Navy medals are presented in official ceremonies and are worn over the left pocket of the uniform on official occasions. The recipient of more than one Navy medal has to wear them according to the order of precedence of the Navy medals. The misuse of a Navy medal is strictly regulated with the law, but models of the medals can be purchased from the market.

Would you rather win an olympic gold medal individually or in a relay?

Personally, I'd like to win an individual gold medal because I did it all by myself without any help.

individually because it was just you who won it and no one helped you or anything. You did it all by yourself.

Gold Medal of Intertelecom 2008 for Ultimax-716

ULTIMAX-716 has won prestigious award - Gold Medal of Intertelecom 2008 for the best product.

ULTIMAX - digital video recorders for demanding customers - full range of choices. DIPOL has launched on the European market a whole family of 3rd generation network DVRs of ULTIMAX series.

The 700 series contains 16-ch and 8-ch DVRs, the 500 and 300 series also include 4-ch models. The flagship DVR of 700 series - M77160 - is capable of recording 4CIF (D1) images at 25 fps, simultaneously from all 16 channels.

The main common features of ULTIMAX family distinguishing it in the market:

* 24 months warranty,
* the newest and most efficient H.264 video compression,
* recording and live viewing in 4CIF/2CIF/CIF/QCIF resolutions - see the table below,
* many modes of triggering video recording (manual, schedule, motion detection, external alarms - in four daily cycles),
* selectable bitrate (recording) from 32 Kbps to 8 Mbps,
* multi-layer management with adequate access rights,
* synchronous recording of video and audio,
* support of largest hard discs (SATA) - up to 2 TB each. In some models there can be installed up to 8 such disks (total capacity of 16 TB)!.,
* possibility of real-time recording on:
o hard discs installed in the DVR,
o external hard discs connected via USB,
o Network Attached Storage (NAS),
o computers with ULTIMAX client software installed,
* playback of archives (from all above locations) with client software,
* possibility of handing over the original disc to authorized services (police, court etc.),
* easy backup of chosen sequences and recordings from the last day,
* possibility of independent determination of all recording parameters for each channel (camera),
* multi-tier information system for the operator about tasks being performed,
* control of practically every PTZ device on the market,
* bidirectional voice connection between the DVR operator and cameras' locations and operators of ULTIMAX client stations.

DVR for demanding customers - intelligent motion detection saves disk space. Most of DVRs available on the market trigger recording of all channels irrespective of in which channel the motion has been detected. It wastes a lot of disc space for saving unimportant information. ULTIMAX family has much more sophisticated implementation of motion detection. For every camera there can be defined pre-alarm (0 to 30 s) and post-alarm (5 s to 10 min.) periods when the channel is also recorded.
