Were fortunate enough where we do have indoor batting facilities, but what if you dont, okay . Then you have to be creative to do that. Well, if i may suggest, there are, you know, secondary, you know, training things that you can possibly use. Obviously, tennis balls are good training methods thatting use indoors, okay . You can also get whiffle balls, all right . And you can use those inside gymnasiums. And depending on your application, they contributed considerable amount of money in terms of grants to all kinds of baseball and Baseball Development programs. You can reach kathy action from its called the baseball tomorrow fund. It is Kathy Bradley at mlb. Com. Kathy dot bradley at mlb. Com.

Correctional health care in 2011 which was about 1 in 6 of their entire correctional budget. And that level of spending shouldnt be surprising. This is not a healthy population. That includes a loent of folks with chronic conditions, with Mental Illness, with addiction disorders, and its getting older as the population ages.

Thank you, mr. Chairman. And thank you for having this hearing

Guest every five years that has to be reauthorized. What that is is, again, what it is, its for satellite. Folks out there who get their tv from satellite, we had to get this thing done by the end of year. If we didnt, we have about 1. 5 million americans who would not be receiving television anymore. It was very important, that was the overall part of what the act was for, we wanted to get it done, but there were certain titles in the legislation that dealt with integration band that the fcc had imposed several years back which said that they had to, if a Cable Company had a settop box, they had to have they couldnt have overing in there everything in there, they had to have a cable card in there which added to the cost.
