![]() That near-fatal day left an imprint that goes beyond what the seams of the ball left on his forehead. Keane was invited to throw out the first ball of the season at Red Sox Opening Day in 1983. He is ever thankful to Rice, who he recently reconnected with through the New England Sports Network (NESN), where Rice serves as a pregame broadcaster for Red Sox games. ![]() He has a small scar just above his left eyebrow that he doesn’t mind showing to a curious questioner and an annual anniversary to remind him of what happened the day Stapleton, his favorite Red Sox player, hit a line drive foul ball that fractured his skull and left 33,595 spectators wondering what might happen to the tiny limp body in Rice’s arms. He doesn’t remember the five days he spent in Children’s Hospital, but he does recall his chance to throw out the Red Sox first pitch of Opening Day in 1983, joining the father of retiring Boston legend Carl Yastrzemski in that ceremonial toss. Jonathan Keane has no memory of that family trip from his home in Greenland, New Hampshire, to Fenway Park with his father and younger brother Matt. “So I went and got him.” Outfielder Jim Rice carries injured Jonathan Keane to the Red Sox dugout during a 1982 game. “I asked what happened,” Rice says, remembering that day this summer on the 40th anniversary of the incident. He took the boy out of his seat, rushed him to the Red Sox lockerroom and made sure he received treatment from team physician Arthur Papas before an ambulance whisked him away to Boston Children’s Hospital. 7, 1982, almost certainly did when the former American League Most Valuable Player and future member of the Baseball Hall of Fame raced into the stands to grab a 4-year-old boy who had been hit in the forehead by a foul ball off the bat of Red Sox shortstop Dave Stapleton.Īs everyone else sat horrified, Rice acted. ![]() What Boston Red Sox outfielder Jim Rice did on Aug.

Why you'll love this edible cookie dough recipe: ![]() And Ray Charles’ iconic recording of “America the Beautiful” (1972) said as much about African-American demands for full citizenship as did the protests that defined the era. When Whitney Houston performed the anthem at the Super Bowl in 1991, she turned the song into a pop hit and brought a level of musicality to the song that argued for the right of African-Americans to claim it. Other performances have made subtler statements. Feliciano has said that it wasn’t his intention for his performance to be a protest, but many people felt differently. When José Feliciano sang the “Star-Spangled Banner” at the 1968 World Series and when Marvin Gaye performed it at the 1983 All-Star Game, those performances were perceived by some as forms of protest, because of the ways in which they reinterpreted the original version. It is also important to remember that not all performances of the national anthem or songs like “America the Beautiful” are seen by everyone as affirmations.

Perhaps Knight is hoping to tap into that spirit at a time when some might believe that racial tensions are as pronounced as they were during the black protest movement of the 1960s. When Aretha Franklin sang songs like “Respect” and “Spirit in the Dark,” the sounds resonated well beyond the churches that cultivated her talents. As the record label’s founder, Berry Gordy, described it, Motown wasn’t the sound of black America, but “the sound of young America,” as the phrase appeared on every one of Motown’s albums and singles. Back then, soul was a sound that closed the racial divide in the country. She emerged at a time when soul music wasn’t just a channel on satellite radio or a playlist for the parents of millennials. Knight came to prominence in the 1960s as the lead vocalist of Gladys Knight and The Pips, recording during the first part of her career for the Motown label, which marks its 60th anniversary this year. In my view, Knight is driven not by the desire for some late career resurgence, but by the traditions that produced her. ![]() Knight has long been committed to social causes such as the United Negro College Fund (UNCF), the Children’s Diabetes Foundation, and AIDS research, appearing on the classic single “That’s What Friends Are For” (1986) with Elton John, Dionne Warwick and Stevie Wonder. Singer Gladys Knight responds to critics who believe she should not sing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl in protest over the NFLs treatment of Colin Kaepernick. The 74-year-old “Empress of Soul” and Georgia native issued a statement saying, “I’m proud to use my voice to unite and represent our country in my hometown of Atlanta.” There will be those who will look cynically at Knight’s decision, but in a career that has spanned 60 years, she will have access to the largest audience of her career. There are perhaps myriad reasons why Knight chose to perform at this year’s Super Bowl. “I pray that this National Anthem will bring us all together in a way never before witnessed and we can move forward and untangle these truths which mean so much to all of us.Mark Anthony Neal Megan Morr/Duke Photography "I am here today and on Sunday, (February 3), to give the anthem back its voice, to stand for that historic choice of words, the way it unites us when we hear it and to free it from the same prejudices and struggles I have fought long and hard for all my life, from walking back hallways, from marching with our social leaders, from using my voice for good – I have been in the forefront of this battle longer than most of those voicing their opinions to win the right to sing our country's anthem on a stage as large as the Super Bowl LIII. It is unfortunate that our national anthem has been dragged into this debate when the distinctive senses of the national anthem and fighting for justice should each stand alone. Kaepernick is protesting two things, and they are police violence and injustice. An important technique for maximal ball control is to stop or change the direction of the ball with the sole of your foot. To become a great dribbler, you must practice constantly, improving your touch, balance, and coordination. And make tight and sharp turns when you are going back through the line of cones. Want to practice some advanced soccer skills These dribbling drills will help with ball mastery and more, including a stepover tutorial and trick moves made famous by some of soccer's. Keep the ball close and don’t dribble the ball too far away from the line of cones. ![]() A good dribbler can create space, beat defenders, and create scoring opportunities for themselves or their teammates. Place about 10 cones in a line about three yards apart and dribble in and out of each cone without touching or knocking over the cones.

The total value of their imports was EUR 74.8 bln over the twelve months, and since the EU crude oil ban until one year after the start of the war, these five laundromat countries have made up 70% of Russia’s crude oil exports. In the year following the start of the invasion, seaborne imports of Russian crude oil into China, India, Turkey, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Singapore increased by 140% in volume terms, compared with the 12 month period before the invasion.In the lead up to sanctions on Russian oil, China significantly increased its oil products exports, reaching 2.9 million tonnes in Q4 of 2022 which was 150% higher than the quarterly average in 2022. China’s monthly exports of oil products to Europe and Australia spiked in late 2022, far above historical levels.The highest proportions of imported oil products into oil price cap coalition countries were diesel (29%), jet fuel (23%) and gasoil (13%). Australia purchased EUR 8.0 bln worth in the 12 month period since Russia’s invasion, followed by the USA (EUR 6.6 bln), the UK (EUR 5.0 bln) and Japan (EUR 4.8 bln). Among the price cap coalition, the largest importer of oil products from the laundromat countries was the EU, whose imports amounted to EUR 17.7 bln.We call these five countries that have increased purchases of Russian oil and “launder” it into products shipped to countries having sanctioned Russian oil the “laundromat” countries. Price cap coalition countries’ imports of refined oil products from these five countries rose by +10 million tonnes (+26%) or EUR 18.7 bln (+80% in value terms) in the year since Russia’s invasion compared to the prior year. One year on from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the price cap coalition countries increased the imports of refined oil products from China (+3.6 million tonnes or +94%), India (+0.3 million tonnes or +2%), Turkey (+1.8 million tonnes or +43%), UAE (+2.6 million tonnes or +23%) and Singapore (+1.8 million tonnes or +33%).This is a major loophole that can undermine the impact of the sanctions on Russia. However, these price cap coalition countries have increased imports of refined oil products from countries that have become the largest importers of Russian crude. The EU, most of G7 and Australia have banned or limited imports of Russian crude oil and oil products, leading to a significant fall in Russia’s oil prices and export revenues.Our report takes an in-depth look at the laundering of Russian oil by countries importing Russian crude and then selling oil products on to price-cap coalition countries that have sanctioned Russian oil. At the same time, these countries, which are all part of the price-cap coalition whose objective is to limit Russia’s revenues from fossil fuel exports, have increased imports of refined oil products by leaps and bounds from the countries that have become the largest importers of Russian crude oil. Well into the second year of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the EU, most of the G7 countries, and Australia have cracked down on their imports of Russian crude oil and oil products. Western countries that have largely banned the imports of oil from Russia imported EUR 42 billion worth of oil products from countries that have increased imports of Russian crude oil in the 12 month period since Russia’s invasion. ![]() Some of Mario's sprites seem to be the very same being shown off here and here.
