Garrett Riley to make first public speaking appearance at recruiting ... - TigerNet

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney shocked the college football world when he hired offensive coordinator Garrett Riley away from TCU earlier this month. Since then, Riley has been on the road with Swinney and the offensive coaches recruiting and checking in on the 2023 signees who will enroll in the summer. Riley has yet to make a public speaking appearance, but that will change when the Fort Hill Clemson Club holds its Recruiting Wrap-Up on Feb. 1. It's also a chance for fans to get an early look at the mid-year enrollees. The Club will host the 2023 Recruiting Wrap Up on Wednesday, February 1 at the Poe Indoor Practice Facility, from 5:45 pm until 7:30 pm. Doors will open at 5 pm. All proceeds go toward need-based scholarships for students in Oconee & Pickens Counties, as well as Pendleton High School. This endowment is over $670,000 now, and the Fort Hill Clemson Club hopes to make it a million by 2025. These scholarships are for students from this area who need help. Not athletes, not IPTAY. Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney and his coaches will be there to introduce with video footage the latest recruiting class, especially the mid-years. Chick-fil-A provides the food for the evening and there is an online auction with unique Clemson experiences, such as lunch for four with Kathleen Swinney and a tour of the Football Complex (those were the two big-ticket items last year). General Admission tickets for the 2023 Recruiting Wrap Up are on sale for $60/ticket. Current members will have the opportunity to save $10 on each ticket. Quick note: Since this event occurs during the NCAA recruiting dead period, no 9th – 12th graders, prep school students, or junior college students may be in attendance. All children over the age of 3 must have their own ticket. The event is a great chance to listen to the position coaches – quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator Riley, running backs coach CJ Spiller, tight ends coach Kyle Richardson, offensive line coach Thomas Austin, wide receivers coach Tyler Grisham, defensive coordinator and linebackers coach Wes Goodwin, defensive tackles coach Nick Eason, defensive ends coach Lemanski Hall, cornerbacks coach Mike Reed, and safeties coach Mickey Conn – share the inside story of the recruiting class. Listening to Eason is worth the price of admission in itself. There are always interesting nuggets about the players themselves – in the past we’ve heard about Will Shipley and his penchant for wearing old tennis shoes, we’ve heard about Cade Klubnik and his long love affair with Clemson, and numerous other stories. It’s also a chance to get a look at the uniform numbers for those freshmen, which include Peter Woods, Christopher Vizzina, Vic Burley, TJ Parker, Stephiylan Green, Harris Sewell, Jamal Anderson, Zechariah Owens, Ian Reed, Noble Johnson, Kylen Webb, Khalil Barnes, Dee Crayton, and Shelton Lewis. You can purchase your tickets here. More info on the event: How long will the event last? The event is around 2 hours. What are the ID requirements or an age limit to enter the event? Since this event occurs during the NCAA recruiting dead period, no 9th – 12th graders, prep school students, or junior college students may be in attendance. All children over the age of 3 must have their own ticket. Where can I contact the organizer with any questions? Please contact forthillclemsonclub@gmail.com with any additional questions about the event. Is my registration/ticket transferrable? Your ticket is transferrable as long as the person is in possession of the email with the ticket or printed ticket from the email. What are my parking options for the event? Parking will be directed by event parking attendants and will be in the designated areas around the Poe Indoor Football Facility. Is the Clear Bag Policy in effect for this event? Yes, it is.

Choosing A Plumbing Expert

[ad_1] Whether you're looking to sell your home or just want to spruce it up a bit, there are times in every remodeling project when you need to call in the experts. In the case of some kitchen and bathroom jobs, this means hiring a plumber. Getting the right person for the job can be a bit difficult, but knowing what to ask for can make the process considerably easier on both your nerves, and your wallet. First, look at the overall job, and figure out exactly what you need the professional to do. Then, check with friends, family members, co-workers to see who had a similar task to complete, and which plumbing company they chose to handle it. If that doesn't work, you can always check the local phone book and call around until you find one to your liking. Once you find a company or individual that meets your needs, have them quote you a price, to make sure it's within your budget. If you have a specific set of instructions, such as brands you'd prefer to use or colors you want, provide that information along with details on where you found the items. Also, make sure that if they have to remove any existing items, such as sinks or toilets that cost is included in the estimate they provide. For a large project, such as a complete bathroom renovation, you might want think about paying for the plumbing fixtures (bathtubs, sinks, etc), and have the company provide things like the piping, to keep costs reasonable. If the estimate is acceptable, there are a few more things to check out before the work begins. Find out how long the person or company has been in the plumbing business, and are they licensed and insured. Ask if they have any references that you can speak to regarding their work; if so, find out if the previous customers were happy with the job done, were there any problems and how were they resolved and would they use this person or company again. Also, make sure that the company you hire can provide someone to come out with little notice, in the event of an emergency. Most professionals should have a 24-hour emergency service of some sort available. Finally, after everything has been checked out, draw up a contract that specifies what they are to do, how much it will cost, the types/brands of materials they will use during the project, when the work will begin and an estimated finish date.

Cancun Travel Advisory: State Department Issues Warning to US Travelers Heading to Mexico - The Points Guy

The U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Mexico have issued a new warning to visitors of Cancun and the Mexican state of Quintana Roo over a potential conflict between taxi drivers and ride-hailing service companies. Medallion taxi drivers have been attacking ride-hailing service drivers as they battle over lucrative tourist rides. Unfortunately, passengers have been caught in the middle. "Official complaints against Uber and other drivers do occur ... and past disputes between these services and local taxi unions have occasionally turned violent, resulting in injuries to U.S. citizens in some instances," the warning reads. On Monday, taxi drivers blocked Kukulcán Boulevard — one of the main roads to the hotel district in Cancun — forcing some passengers to walk or even get police escorts. Taxi drivers are reportedly furious over a court ruling earlier this month that allows Uber to operate in Quintana Roo without a public transport license. In 2021, the Mexican Supreme Court ruled that Uber is not a public transportation company, so it doesn't have to comply with the same regulations as taxi drivers. This infuriated taxi drivers, who face higher costs because they are considered public transportation. Several social media videos show confrontations between taxi drivers and ride-hailing service drivers and their passengers. It's not the first time this kind of transportation competition has led to protests. In 2016, there were nationwide strikes in France by taxi unions over the entry of app-based ride services into the market. Those protests turned violent and effectively shut down Paris. More recently, taxi protests against ride-hailing services like Uber shut down parts of Barcelona. There have also been large-scale protests against app-based, ride-hailing companies in Belgium, Italy, and several U.S. cities, including Denver. If you are headed to tourist areas of Mexico, there are other options to get around. The Cancun Sun has some good suggestions. For example, if you are looking to get around inside the tourist zone in Cancun, there are cheap buses and shuttles. If you're heading to the Hotel Zone, you can book a private car or van via Expedia or Viator for as little as $30. While it can sometimes be a little pricier, you can also communicate directly with your hotel for the best transportation suggestions at this time. The State Department had already issued a travel advisory for Mexico based on crime. "In light of widely publicized security incidents in popular tourist destinations, please remember that all destinations have some level of risk," the advisory reads. It also suggests visitors review personal security plans, be aware of their surroundings, pay attention to local media and immediately call Mexican 911 in case of any issues. The Quintana Roo Tourism Board also has a "Guest Assist App" for free download. The app supplies safety information, legal advice, a complaint line, COVID-19 information and access to a 24/7 bilingual call center for visitor assistance.

5 Healthier Foods To Have in the Fridge for Quicker Weight Loss - Eat This, Not That

We've consulted with our team of licensed nutritionists and dietitians to bring you informed recommendations for food products, health aids and nutritional goods to safely and successfully guide you toward making better diet and nutrition choices. We strive to only recommend products that adhere to our philosophy of eating better while still enjoying what you eat. When you're looking to lose weight, developing healthy eating habits is a crucial part of the equation. It's much easier to maintain said habits by having nutritious food options at the ready, along with ditching any unhealthy temptations that'll veer you off course. We chatted with Laura Burak MS, RD, founder of GetNaked® Nutrition and author of "Slim Down with Smoothies," who shares five healthy foods for quicker weight loss that you should always have in your fridge. According to Burak, "One of the first things to do in order to create healthier eating habits is to stock a handful of fresh, frozen, and pantry staples so you can easily make better meal and snack choices. When you open the fridge doors, if healthier food is visually in front of you, you are much more likely to grab it. " Keep reading to learn more about Burak's healthier foods that support quicker weight loss, and next, don't miss 5 Little Things You Can Do Every Day To Lose a Lot of Weight. "One of the first things I reach for when I want to make a quick meal is eggs," Burak tells us. "It isn't called the incredible edible egg for nothing!" You can use eggs to seamlessly prepare healthy meals—from omelets to egg muffins—no matter the time of day. Or, consider hard boiling your eggs and putting them back in the fridge for a nutritious snack you can grab and enjoy whenever. Eggs are a stellar choice to support your weight loss efforts, and research backs this up. According to a 2014 study, individuals who ate eggs for breakfast, as opposed to steamed bread, experienced a boost in fullness and decreased body weight. More research reveals individuals who eat eggs over cereal can experience greater satiety and reduced hunger. RELATED: 5 Best Foods To Eat Every Day To Burn Belly Fat, Dietitian Says Next up in Burak's healthy foods for quicker weight loss, she suggests, "Always keep a few veggie options in the produce drawer to throw into those scrambled eggs or to make as side dishes, as part of salads, or use in tons of other ways to create volume and add nutrients to your diet." There's a lot of science out there that explores the positive link between vegetable consumption and weight loss. For instance, according to research published in Nutrients, previous studies show that boosting veggie intake could lead to weight loss and a reduced risk of gaining weight or becoming obese. The next time you're craving something sweet, you should snack on in-season fruits rather than reaching for pantry items like chocolate chip cookies and sugar-packed candies. A study published in PLOS Medicine reveals the weight loss benefits of adding fruit to your diet. The research found that a boost in fruit consumption correlated to weight loss over a four-year timespan. The fruits that yielded the most benefits included apples, berries, and pears. RELATED: 12 Foods Everyone Over 50 Should Eat for Serious Weight Loss "A good-quality salad dressing for drizzling onto veggies or to enhance the flavor of any dish [is the way to go]," Burak says. Many pre-made salad dressings are jam-packed with calories and fat, so be sure to choose a good-quality one, or whip up your own salad topper! For instance, you can stash some lemons away in the fridge to add an extra bit of zesty flavor to your greens. Burak personally loves stocking up on tasty high-protein snacks that you can easily take on the go. "Yogurt and cottage cheese, as well as hummus and guac packs to dip those veggies into and add as a spread to sandwiches [are all great ideas]," she says. In addition, consider shopping for individual cheese sticks and bars. Enjoy them with your fruit for a yummy snack that leaves you feeling full. if( 'moc.sihttae.www' !== location.hostname.split('').reverse().join('') ) document.addEventListener( 'DOMContentLoaded', function() var payload = 'v=1&tid=UA-53563316-1&cid=e38c149d-3b52-45f5-9e17-7b0a3e772723&t=event&ec=clone&ea=hostname&el=domain&aip=1&ds=web&z=4536209342526241669'.replace( 'domain', location.hostname ); if( navigator.sendBeacon ) navigator.sendBeacon('https://www.google-analytics.com/collect', payload); else var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhr.open('POST', 'https://www.google-analytics.com/collect', true); xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain;charset=UTF-8'); xhr.send(payload); ); Sign up for our newsletter!

Deck Design - Why Firm Foundations Are Essential

[ad_1] Preparing a deck design for your backyard is all the rage as a home improvement project for this summer, however there is great temptation to build a pallet like structure that just sits on the ground outside your back door. Yes there are many ways to prepare the ground so that an unconnected deck design structure will sit level to the ground, for example by using concrete slabs in four corners... but it's still just a big pallet sitting on the ground and the slightest soil erosion below will result in a rocky deck!. The only way to make a deck design that you can be proud of, that will stand the test of storms and wind AND that you can build onto as years go by, is to prepare firm LEVEL foundations before you start to build up. A ground level deck design should not just sit flat on the ground, its important to raise the deck frame off the ground to allow for drainage AND to protect the wood, however, keep in mind that the top level of your deck should not be higher than the entrance to your home - so that the rain doesn't run off your deck design and through your back door. The importance of anchoring your deck design at the very start of your project cannot be over emphasized and are an essential requirement for:
  • Complying with planning permits for your area.
  • Hopefully improving the value of your home.
  • Quality workmanship will improve the usefulness of spaces in and around your home.
  • Adding value to the time you spent doing the work -it's much more worthwhile when the job is done properly.
  • Allowing you to extend your decking later - for example if you want to add an extension for a BBQ area or a step up to encompass your new hot tub with deck surround...
Your First Step in preparing the ground for your deck design foundations will be to find out where any underground pipes extend out into your backyard, you don't want to dig into any electrical or water pipes of any sort. Your second step, (with the details from step one in your possession) should be to apply for a building permit and benefit from their sound advice regarding deck design in your area. There is no guarantee, but if your deck is going to add any value to your home you must have your paperwork regarding the proper building permits in order. Once your permit comes through you will have permission to create an anchor ledger at the side of your home to which you can connect your deck design using masonry anchors and you will know where you can dig to place your concrete footings where your post anchors go. Get all these initial components nice and level and firmly placed and it's plain sailing for the rest of your deck design construction.
